[Maine-birds] Ebb and flow of tides and alewives along Middle Road in Falmouth at the Presumpscot River bridge

This morning at 10, no birds.

Now at 3:00 pm, roughly 300 cormorants, 6 ospreys, 3 eagles, 5 great blues, and 3 snowies. Fun to watch the cormorants and ospreys flood the zone when a school of fish is spotted.

Periodically many cormorants and the ospreys move upstream out of sight. Can then be seen from the Allen Avenue bridge.

[Maine-birds] White-crowned Sparrow in Poland

I've seen plenty of White-throateds here, but today was my first White-crowned. Unmistakeable markings on the head!

[Maine-birds] Evening Grosbeak in Pittsfield

Just got back from seeing the Painted Bunting to find an equally unexpected female Evening Grosbeak on my feeders.

[Maine-birds] Bremen birds this week

Well, the weather was terrible but the incoming birds to the back yard were good - male Rose-Breasted Grosbeak for 3 days, 3 Baltimore Orioles, 3 hummingbirds, a black-throated blue warbler, purple finch pair, a yellow-bellied sapsucker, and two Bobolinks!

Dare I mention the uptick in grey squirrels, red squirrels, and yes, chipmunks!
