My daughter Sarah and I had the pleasure of birding alongside Peter and Barbara Vickery, Mac Hunter, Aram Calhoun, and Ron Joseph this morning. Our trip took us from Lubec, Maine through Head Harbor Passage, NB and to the Old Sow whirlpool. The best bird was an adult Sabine's gull that we found at the Old Sow in both Eastport, Maine and Deer Island, New Brunswick. It was difficult to stay on the Sabine's because it was feeding with a few thousand whirling Bonaparte's gulls in the tide rips. Along the way we also saw a year-old little gull, a sooty shearwater, 60-70 razorbills, 6-7 minke whales, and lots of harbor porpoise. It was a fantastic trip.
