Overflow Parking Lot
All cars must be removed from the overflow lot at the end of Fox Run Dr by Midnight on April 1. Cars will be towed if they are parked in that lot. The lot will be off limits until the ground refreezes next year. Vehicles can park on Fox Run Dr for long term parking.

This has been a very cold and Snowy winter and I am really looking forward to the spring and the migrants that come with the warmer weather. I never tire of our winter birds, in fact many of these species are birds I look forward to seeing every day at my office.
Not just birds mind you, I get some other critters too.
Who doesn’t love ducks? In addition to our year round buddies, the Mallard and the Black Duck, we get Long-Tailed Ducks, Bufflehead, Goldeneyes and Mergansers. I can see Common Mergansers, Common and Barrow’s Goldneyes at my office. This year I was able to add Green-Winged Teal to my “yard list” at work too.

And near my office I have also had a fair amount of raptors this year, as well as some rare Glaucous Gulls…

Is it Spring Yet? This has been a very cold and Snowy winter and I am really looking forward to the spring and the migrants that come with the warmer weather.
Snowy Owl Irruption (Warning: Some images are graphic)
There are many possible explanations for the large number of Snowy Owls that have been seen this year. Some say that its because of an abundance of lemmings in the arctic during the breeding season. This leads to more young owls surviving and larger…

Moving On - Fall Migration Picks Up
Fall Migration is in full swing with more arctic breeding shorebirds showing up and passing through. For me the hotspots are Pine Point, the pannes off the Eastern Trail at Scarborough Marsh, and the beach at Biddeford Pool. Spotted and Solitary…

Rarity: A Brief Study of Herons
Scarborough Marsh in Southern Coastal Maine is no stranger to rarities. This year alone we’ve had visits from White-Faced Ibis, American Avocet and a Black-Necked Stilt. Some identifications are easier than others, but often patient study is required to…

A Late Start to May
As odd as it may sound, the weather was too nice in early May. With warm weather and good winds many migrants skipped passed Maine or stayed further west. Then we had some bad weather and that lead to a bit of a Warbler “fall-out.” Things have been…

I went home for a quick visit to see my family in the middle of April and got a sneak peak at what was headed my way. Yellow-Rumped…

This year is off to a great start! (Part 1 of 2)
Happy New Year!
In addition to a life list, a comprehensive list of every bird that you have seen over the course of your life, many birders keep other lists too. An example would be a state list, or all of the birds you have seen in a particular state,…
