[Maine-birds] ANHINGA - Somerville, 23-24 Jul

Crossposting from the Maine Rare Bird Alert GroupMe that an ANHINGA was found yesterday by Tabatha Holt in Somerville, and is still being seen today (24 Jul). Here is the access info I shared in that group:

The Anhinga is in a flooded meadow on the east side of Hewett Road in Somerville, about 0.4 miles north of Route 17. This is a narrow dirt road and visitors need to be very cautious of their speed (25 mph) and not to trespass on either end of the location. Recommended parking is on the east side of Hewett Road, starting near the little island of pines, here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/E5hCHWmciLByP7KD7 and continuing north. Please do not park past the first telephone pole south of this pin, or go beyond the two north of here. There should be space for ~10 cars at a time, so please don't stay too long and do your best to carpool. Again, make sure you do not block traffic and beware of the deep culvert on the opposite side of the road.
