[Maine-birds] Black-and-White Warbler on Mt. Desert Island

Hi all -- I was stunned to find a close-range Black-and-White Warbler feeding in the seawrack line just north of Cable Crossing Road, in Manset (Southwest Harbor). This was about an hour ago. The bird seems tame.

The habitat on both the water and landward side of this bird are reminiscent of the Pond Cove location (Cape Elizabeth) where last winter's Orange-crowned Warbler hung on for so long. Wide, deep and spongy line of rotting seaweed (with insects visible), and behind the rocky shore a dense and extensive (impenetrable) area of marshy shrubbery.
