TS Fay Biddeford Pool seawatching

[Magill Weber]

Nothing super rare, but with the Tropical Storm moving through, several hours of seawatching at the end of East Point, Biddeford Pool with direct East onshore winds yielded many nearshore shearwaters including CORY’S, GREAT, and a SOOTY, with many others too far out to ID, but likely Great. Even better, Black Guillemots carrying food back to burrows on Wood Island.

At Hills Beach, my first of fall WHIMBREL, Roseate and ARCTIC Terns, and SB DOWITCHER and Willet numbers starting to build in the Pool.
