[Maine-birds] Signs of Spring in the Belgrades

En route to the Belgrade Lakes village this morning, I stopped to scan the open water on the south end of Messalonskee Lake. Through the fog, I observed Mallards (4), Hooded Merganser (7), and a single Ring-necked Duck.

Upon arrival to the Maine Lakes Resource Center, I heard the long absent "kink-la-reee" song of Red-winged Blackbirds and spotted 4 individuals in the trees across the street. A coworker reports that he saw a Turkey Vulture soaring near Messalonskee Lake yesterday afternoon. Chickadees and cardinals continue to sing in the village each morning.
