[Maine-birds] This Week's Highlights, 12/23-29

Hi all,
My observations of note this week included the following:
- 7 Lesser and 1 Greater Scaup, Marginal Way, Ogunquit, 12/26 (with Jeannette).
- 2 drake BARROW'S GOLDENEYES, Freeport Town Wharf, 12/27.
- 2 adult Glaucous Gulls and 2 1st-winter Iceland Gulls, Bath Landfill, 12/28.
- 1 immature male DICKCISSEL, Desert Road, Freeport, 12/29 (during Freeport-Brunswick Christmas Bird Count with Zane Baker and Jeannette). By plumage and proximity, this is the bird that was last seen at the store on 12/15. I'll post a complete territory tally tomorrow with some interesting numbers.

...at least for Maine. On Christmas in Gloucester, MA, we found a Ross's Goose!
