Re: [Maine-birds] new duck at Evergreen, Portland

Hey Peter

I saw a similar all-white small duck at the ponds on Sept 29th. I haven't seen it since. I wonder if it is the same bird.

Re: [Maine-birds] Carolina Wren - Yarmouth

Hinckley Park in South Portland has been blanketed with Carolina Wrens for the last couple of weeks.  (Not 1000 % sure of ID, since it is by sound,  but it sure sounds like them.)

A Carolina Wren showed up at my feeders yesterday and is still here today.  Hoping it stays.  My first in YEARS for my back yard.

Re: [Maine-birds] Carolina Wren - backyard

We've had a Carolina Wren at the feeders in Hiram for the past couple of days as well.   It seems to relish the peanut & red pepper suet, but will also take black oil sunflower seeds.  Such an inquisitive bird, lots of personality and it seems to poke its head into everything,  Hope it remains for a while.  There were 3 Hermit Thrushes in the yard today as well.

Cape Neddick, West of turnpike. I never get these in my yard much less on the ground beneath the feeders.  Cool.

Only mentioning because I've never noticed one in the yard before. Checked out feeders but didn't stay.

[Maine-birds] Snow Buntings and late-lingering Laughing Gulls - MDI

Good morning all - Super gusty onshore winds this morning in the area of Seawall Pond and Seawall Picnic Area, plus some spits of rain. 2 Snow Buntings were on the roadside in the Seawall Pond area, and Laughing Gulls (who seem to always stay late in this location) were huddling on the shore and bathing in the pond along with Black-backs, Ring-bills and Herrings.

Also had a Sharp-shinned flyover, heading south.

Best,
Craig K
