Paul and I came out on the (only) Port Clyde boat this morning, spent the afternoon walking around and birding. 14 warbler species, including 1 Bay-breasted, 3 No. Waterthrush, 4 BT Blue, many Blackpolls. Lots of parulas, yellowthroats, and Yellow W. 7 sparrow species including 2 Lincoln's, many singing White-crowned, dozens of White-throats, and 1 Field.

Other highlights:
E. Kingbird-6
Scarlet Tanager-1-2
Bobolink-2
Rose-breasted Grosbeak-2
Indigo Bunting-1
Pine Siskin-5

On the way out, 4 eagles on the seal ledges (and seals).

A beautiful day to be here!

I saw a Peregrine flying over the harbor, came very close over the dock despite all the people and trucks right before the 11:30 boat arrived.
