Rock Wren in Perkins Cove, Ogunquit, Maine

[Kathryn Davis]

The Rock Wren that has been seen in Perkins Cove for some days is still there.  Today, I observed it around the building near the Marginal Way.   The building on the left that has a sign that says Oarweed on the cove side of the parking lot.  It was first seen in some pine trees next to the building.  Then, it flew to a fence post less than two feet from me.  It would occasionally fly down and grab what appeared to be dead bugs in the snow.   At one point, it actually flew into an opening between the building and its foundation and stayed out of sight for awhile.  I spotted it later in the same area on the fence and on rocks along the cove side.  Very cooperative bird.
