[Maine-birds] Biddeford Pool, 10/30 (MAGO, AMOY,lingering migrants, new arrivals, etc).

Hi all,
I spent a lovely Sunday morning birding in and around Biddeford Pool. Nothing too rare, but a nice slate of "good birds." Highlights included:
- 2 "Ipswich" Savannah Sparrows (First of Fall), Timber Point
- 1 "Western" Palm Warbler, 1 Snow Bunting, 9 Horned Grebes (FOF), etc, Timber Point.
- 1 Black-legged Kittiwake - in pond at Fortunes Rocks Beach; odd location! Likely storm-related.
- 1 drake Northern Pintail and 1 drake American Wigeon, Great Pond, Biddeford Pool.
- 1 Semipalmated Sandpiper, etc, Biddeford Pool Beach.
- 2 Harlequin Ducks (FOF), East Point, Biddeford Pool.
- 1 continuing MARBLED GODWIT, 3 Purple Sandpipers (FOF), 91 Black-bellied Plovers, 38 Ruddy Turnstone, 1 Brant, etc, Saco River Jetties from Hill's Beach.
- 4 continuing AMERICAN OYSTERCATCHERS, Hill's Beach.
- 1 continuing Red-eyed Vireo, Saco Riverwalk.
