[Maine-birds] Additional Highlights This Week and Dickcissel Update, 11/11-11/17

Hi all,

Just a few more of my observations of note over the past seven productive days included:

- 1 male DICKCISSEL continues daily at the store through week's end, and throughout the day today, 11/17. The dull immature female-type was last seen on 11/10.
~30 Snow Buntings with ~100 Horned Larks, Mayall Road, Gray/New Gloucester, 11/11 (with Saturday Morning Birdwalk group).
- 8 Snow Buntings and 8 Common Grackles, Yarmouth Town Landing, 11/11 (with Saturday Morning Birdwalk group).
- 1 American Pipit with 16 Horned Larks and 1 Snow Bunting, Stover's Point Preserve, Harpswell, 11/13 (with Jeannette).
- 1 Gray Catbird, Eastern Promenade, Portland, 11/16.

My high count of Canada Geese in the "Greater Yarmouth Goose Fields" this week was down to only 367 on 11/17. One AMERICAN COOT was again reported from Woodville Road on 11/13.

I put a couple of Marion Sprague's photos of the Yellow-throated Warbler from Sabattus Pond on 11/12 in my blog here:
