I’m mostly keeping myself entertained by doing Maine Winter Bird Atlas surveys and chasing phantom sea eagles, but I also have an ambition to produce a series of where-to-winter-bird along the entire coast. I’ve just drafted a video that I describe as the Top 6 places to go birding in Portland…which is a pretty bold statement from a guy who spends most of his time downeast and deep in the woods. I can’t claim to be a Portland expert. So I thought I would get a little feedback from anyone interested in the subject, in case a little re-editing or re-shooting is in order. This video includes the area from Pine Point in Scarborough to Eastern Promenade in Portland. If you have a thought, you can reply offline or just post in the comment section. I plan to post it on the Maine Birding Trail website and Facebook page in another day or so.

That was really good!  Brief yet substantial! Makes me want to take a drive to the coast this weekend!

Thanks!

Earlier today, I posted a Youtube video on Winter Birding in Portland, inviting review, since I live north of Bangor and don’t get to bird Portland as much as I’d like. See: Winter Birding in Portland - YouTube

 

Thanks to those who replied. The local feedback was helpful, for this or a future video.

The top three suggestions were:

 

#3: I should have included Two Lights State Park with Dyer Point.

#2: I should have included Back Cove or Mackworth Island.

#1: The Fish Pier.

 

So there. The video has now been pier reviewed.
