[Maine-birds] Peter Vickery's Maine Birds book

What ever happened to Peter's work on a Maine Birds book? Peter died
nearly three years ago. I thought his book was basically complete and
just needed some formatting of the front and back matter and then to be
published, or maybe not. Is it still viable or is it now a dead issue?
It gets outdated more quickly than we would like, still I am sure there
would be much of value in it. Thanks much.

[Maine-birds] York - American Wigeon / Black-bellied Plover

From Robert Dixon

1/18/20 - York - The previously reported American Wigeon was observed yesterday evening during high tide (4:15 pm) feeding with American Black Ducks on the south side of Steedman Woods after crossing over Wiggly Bridge.

The Black-bellied Plover was observed earlier (11:15 am) in the day at low tide feeding on the mudflats of Barrels Millpond just before Wiggly Bridge. Record photos of both birds.
