All of neck sides, breast, abdomen, flank and vent yellow. Throat was black as was a very small, narrow, linear patch on the median line of the breast. Etc...........

While our bird-a-thon team, The Lame Ducks, where out counting species of birds yesterday a very competent birding friend stopped by the blue berry barrens out in front of the house here on Pertville Road and saw a NORTHERN WHEATEAR. The bird flew off as he was attempting to photograph the bird. I could not relocate the bird today.
Another wheatear or maybe the same one that I reported on 5.16.08 was seen about a mile from here on 5.15.08 by another friend.

Black-bellied Plover (I guess) in the inner Blue Hill harbor today. I'm not a plover expert; it looked darker underneath (American G-P) but that's probably just the breeding plumage coming in. FYI, terns are in the harbor now, bank swallows are at the gravel pit, but I haven't seen cliff swallows yet. I take it the results on the geese in the harbor a few weeks ago were that they were domestics... My Canada Warblers and Northern Waterthrush have returned to the mosquito-breeding center behind our house.
