I've arrived in Maine, flown here on a giant metal bird. Upon stepping out of the airport, I saw some EUSTs foraging in the urban grass, and I swear I heard a HOSP up in the metal jungle of streetlights. On my bus ride, a COHA suddenly shot over the highway, nearly colliding with the bus.
I arrived at night, and heard no owls. The SPOW are far far behind! Their cousins the Barred Owl are home here and I can love them here. I hope to hear one while I'm here. During my days of exploring the area and starting work/getting tours, I've added HETH, GBBG, HEGU, GBHE, BTNW, SOSP, DCCO, AMGO, and BLJA to my Maine list.
It's been foggy the past two days. I think I'll go to the point and hang out this evening, watching for seabirds until the light fades.
