[Maine-birds] Portland: Thick-billed Murre...

Hi all,

After seeing an eBird report yesterday of a THICK-BILLED MURRE at the
Portland Fish Pier and then receiving a heads up from Nathan Hall
early this afternoon, I decided to check it out. I arrived at 3:30pm
to find the bird alone and very close off the north side of the pier.
During the hour I was there, the bird slowly drifted upriver.

The KING EIDERS (female and immature male) continue, at least one
ICELAND GULL was with the hundreds of HERRING GULLS and GREAT
BLACK-BACKED GULLS, and I also had a MERLIN cruise by with talons
full.

Here's my full list with photos: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S33870805

P.S. I'm leading a bird walk in Saco next Sunday (1/29). Details here:
