Correction: I hadn't realized that immature RBWOs have brown heads. The one at my house yesterday morning was, therefore, a mature adult. He had a full red head. Somehow something about his behavior and the fact that his feathers looked very bright and new led me to think he was young. He was on the black oil sunflower seed feeder and the suet feeder next to it.
Haven't seen him again today.

A male red-bellied woodpecker (wow!) has been at the suet feeder all morning here. I've never seen an RBWO in Maine, tho' they were plentiful in Indiana. This guy seems quite young:very bright and new-looking feathers.
Had a Tufted Titmouse here on Thursday; I've seen these in Blue Hill, but never on this property.

RED PHALAROPE (Very unusual to see this normally palagic species of shorebird this time of the year in this kind of habitat. Most often found quite far out at sea)
GREEN HERON (I don't see this spices on our peninsula very often)
10-17-04 Pertville Road at feeder
ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK (1st year male)
I and many others find this time of the year, the end of fall migration, the best time of the year for unusual sightings.

Did anyone else have swarms of Ladybugs on their houses today? Around 2pm all sides of our house were covered with them! We're talking hundreds or more- it was quite a show! A guide book said that large numbers occasionally find their way into houses in autumn looking for places to spend the winter.

I called in a Barred Owl last night --- first time I've ever managed it. I didn't see it, but it came to maybe 100 feet of the house and we called and responded. I heard a second way off in the distance.
