[Maine-birds] Pittston: Cattle Egret...

Hi all,

This morning Zeke Smith reported a Cattle Egret along Rt. 27 in Pittston. I was able to relocate the bird in a fenced-in farm field on the north side of Crocker Road (GPS location of bird 44.140694, -69.743710). There were cows in a nearby corral.

This area is private property, but I had no trouble seeing the bird from the road. A local resident I spoke with said the bird (he thought there may be more than one) has been around for a while.

Wildly,
Josh

[Maine-birds] Identification help, please

Is anyone able to tell me positively if these are fish crows or American crows. I did not hear the call. Thanks.

We had a female Evening Grosbeak at our feeder this morning. Unfortunately, she didn't stay long.

[Maine-birds] Iceland Gull in SW Harbor, MDI

Hi all -- Found an Iceland Gull in the harbor of Southwest Harbor late this morning near high tide. A good scanning spot for me has always been the Upper Town Dock off of Clark Point Road.

Today's quick count of Seawall's "late Laughers" Laughing Gulls was 14.

Best,

Craig

Domestic Graylag Goose and some flavor of domestic duck.

Good birding,

Fyn

[Maine-birds] Question re: ID

I was going through some older photos and stumbled upon this. Are these Snow Geese or some kind of domestic hybrid?
