SUMMARY:Field Trip: Sabattus Pond
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a visit to Sabattus Pond as we look over the extensive flocks of south-bound ducks. Sabattus Pond is remarkable in autumn when water levels draw down\, exposing extensive mud flats and attracting large concentrations of migrating waterfowl. From October until freeze-up\, regulars include Mallards\, American Black Ducks\, Ruddy Ducks\, Hooded Mergansers\, Common Goldeneye\, Green-winged Teals\, American Wigeons\, Northern Pintails\, Ring-necked Ducks\, both species of scaup\, and American Coots. We often see some interesting songbirds\, and a few raptors. \nWe’ll meet at the boat ramp at the south end at 8 am (524 Sabattus Road\, coordinates: 44.11911° N\, 70.09320° W). We typically stop at several sites around the pond to view the whole pond. Participants should dress warmly. \nThis trip will be led by Will Broussard. To sign up\, please send an email to (midcoastfieldtrips@maineaudubon.org) with your name and phone number.

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 191 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. Please register in advance by sending an email to Mael Glon (midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org) with your name and phone number. \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.

SUMMARY:Field Trip: Rockland Breakwater & Samoset Resort
DESCRIPTION:The Rockland Breakwater is an inviting place to bird in winter if temperature\, tides\, and wind cooperate. A walk out on the Breakwater takes you into the middle of Rockland Harbor to where the sea birds can be found. In winter\, it is a great spot for Purple Sandpipers\, loons\, grebes\, scoters\, Common Goldeneyes\, Black Guillemots\, and sea ducks. \nNavigating the uneven and widely spaced granite blocks requires concentration\, so we highly recommend you be stable on your feet for this walk\, and wear sturdy boots. Dress warmly as the sea breeze in February is cold! \nAll are welcome! You don’t need to be an Audubon member or an experienced birder. To sign up\, please send an email to Mael Glon (midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org) with your name and phone number. \nOur trip leader will meet you in the Breakwater parking lot at the end of Samoset Road at 9 am. Depending on time and interest\, we may continue our walk onto the adjacent Samoset grounds.

SUMMARY:Birds\, Critters and Flora: eBird and iNaturalist
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a visit to the Nelson Nature Preserve in Friendship to look for breeding birds and survey the flora and fauna. Attendees will function as citizen scientists helping Mid-Coast Audubon document the wildlife and plant life on our preserves. We will be using apps on our smartphones to record data. The group size will be limited to 10 people. \nHalf the group will concentrate on identifying breeding bird behavior and how to use breeding codes on eBird checklists. The other half will identify and document flora and non-bird fauna using iNaturalist. Participants should have both eBird and iNaturalist accounts (free)\, and the apps installed on their smartphone. Here’s how to get started with eBird\, and how to get started with iNaturalist. \nAll are welcome! You don’t need to be an Audubon member (but we hope you are!) or an experienced naturalist. For questions\, or to sign up\, please send an email to midcoastfieldtrips at maineaudubon.org with your name and phone number. We will send out information about parking and carpooling in advance.

SUMMARY:Birds\, Critters and Flora: eBird and iNaturalist
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a visit to the Guy Van Duyn Preserve in Waldoboro to help identify the breeding birds and survey the flora and fauna. Attendees will function as citizen scientists helping Mid-Coast Audubon document the wildlife and plant life on our preserves. We will be using apps on our smartphones to record data. The group size will be limited to 5 people. \nHalf the group will concentrate on identifying breeding bird behavior and how to use breeding codes on eBird checklists. The other half will identify and document flora and non-bird fauna using iNaturalist. Participants should have both eBird and iNaturalist accounts (free)\, and the apps installed on their smartphone. Here’s how to get started with eBird\, and how to get started with iNaturalist. \nAll are welcome! You don’t need to be an Audubon member (but we hope you are!) or an experienced naturalist.
