Spent the morning looking for large expanses of berries where that Solitaire may be hiding. The Bayberry mast seems to be a flop this year, but other berry crops are ablaze right now. Junipers have been decimated by the protected herd of small deer on Hermit Island, but other crops are abundant. No sign of the solitaire, but a few highlights nevertheless:
Peregrine Falcon adult at Popham Beach
Popham area shorebirds included only 1 Blk Bellied Plover, 8 GYLegs and 14 Semi-Plovers.
Large flock of P Siskins at Head Beach. 60 or more.
Early (for Phippsburg) Fox Sparrows, and building numbers of Purple Finches
no sign of the Solitaire, but my money is on its continuing presence somewhere in Phippsburg.
