SUMMARY:Field Trip: Salt Bay Sunday! Damariscotta
DESCRIPTION:Salt Bay Farm is widely viewed as an excellent destination for birding in spring\, but it has a lot to offer in fall as well! Join us as we explore this preserve’s varied habitats looking for sparrows\, pipits\, finches\, and waterfowl. We might even get lucky and find some late stragglers in need of extra motivation to fly south! On the right day\, this hotspot can yield over 50 species even in fall (see\, for example\, this eBird checklist). \nDirections: We’ll meet in the preserve parking lot located at 110 Belvedere Rd\, Damariscotta\, ME 04543. This property has a good amount of parking available\, but please consider carpooling if possible. \nAll are welcome! This trip will be led by Justin Guider and Alan Phipps. For questions\, or to sign up\, please send an email to (midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org) with your name and phone number. Registering gives us an idea of how many people will be attending and a way to contact you if we need to cancel or reschedule. You can contact Jeff at the above email or by phone (914-489-7870) if you have questions.

SUMMARY:Christmas Bird Count\, Bunker Hill
DESCRIPTION:Beginning on Christmas Day 1900\, ornithologist Frank M. Chapman\, an early officer in the then-nascent Audubon Society\, proposed a new holiday tradition a "Christmas Bird Census" that would count birds during the holidays rather than hunt them. Mid-Coast Audubon proudly carries on the tradition of the Christmas Bird Count in three count circles every December. \nWe welcome all birders for a fun and chilly day of birding\, or from the warmth of your home as you watch your feeders. To ensure good coverage in our count areas\, we need to plan ahead. To join this count\, please contact the compiler\, Jeff Cherry\, at midcoast @ maineaudubon.com at least one week in advance (Dec. 8) to inquire about a space on the team and the meeting place.

SUMMARY:Field Trip: Pemaquid Point
DESCRIPTION:Visiting Pemaquid Point is like going out to sea\, but without a boat. The peninsula is long and relatively narrow\, extending well out in the Atlantic ocean\, which explains why it is such a great place for viewing seabirds. From the lighthouse\, expect to see Great Cormorants\, Black Guillemots\, Common Eiders and Longtailed Ducks. Previous trips have yielded Razorbills\, Purple Sandpipers\, Black-legged Kittiwakes and Iceland Gulls. eBird reports that 198 species have been seen at Pemaquid Point Lighthouse! \nAll are welcome! You don’t need to be an Audubon member or have advanced birding skills to join us. This trip will be led by Will Broussard and Jeff Cherry. Please register for this trip by email midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org with your name and phone number. Registering gives us an idea of how many people will be attending and a way to contact you if we need to cancel or reschedule.  \nWe'll meet at the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse parking lot in Bristol at 9:00 am. There may be a parking fee. Participants should dress for cold and windy weather. Winter precipitation will result in cancellation.
