Hi,
I concur with Bob about increased numbers of red-throated this fall. I am seeing them in a variety of settings quite close to shore - occasionally dabbling in 2 foot-deep water in Rockland and Thomaston harbors. At Pemquid Point a couple weeks back, a group of 5 flew past, followed by 2 more within a span of minutes.

I've spent the last few days birding from Schoodic to Quoddy Head, and there seems to be a surprising number of red-throated loons up this-a-way. More grebes than usual, but fewer scoters.
Most surprising bird so far: a gray catbird at Roque Bluffs State Park on December 1, meowing and chowing down on rose hips.
