[Maine-birds] Yellow-breasted Chat - Portland, 26 Nov

Passing along a call I just got from Marian Zimmerman that the Yellow-breasted Chat at Capisic Pond Park (https://ebird.org/hotspot/L251784) is being seen this afternoon (3:50PM on 26 Nov) between the bridge and the first break in vegetation. She said it has been showing well for the last ten minutes, which sounds like ten minutes longer than most chat views!

[Maine-birds] Swallow at Beach Plum Farm

I probably had a Cave Swallow yesterday, but due to poor lighting and limited views, as well as rain, I couldn't rule out a Rough-winged or Cliff Swallow.

[Maine-birds] Red-necked Grebe Roque Bluffs 20 Nov

Red-necked Grebes have been here at Roque Bluffs all week. Wally heard one doing an "alert" call a few days ago, very near the shore, and it was fun to confirm the call with the Cornell on-line website. This afternoon I took some (awful) photos of a single Grebe near shore at the small tidal inlet near us. I thought it was a Red-necked Grebe, and I still think that.
