Monday Aug 20:
Birding Machias Seal Island

Maine Audubon's Naturalist Doug Hitchcox was one of our guides for the entire weeklong program. He wrote the following about our morning trip to Machias Seal Island:
"We were incredibly lucky to be allowed to land on the island during this trip. Calm sea conditions, a late nesting season for ATPUs (https://www.audubon.org/news/why-maines-baby-puffins-are-growing-so-slowly-year), and a very gracious captain culminated in a smooth landing and super intimate views of puffins from blinds. Ralph Eldrige reported two Lark Sparrows on the island recent, at least one on this morning, but we were not able to locate them from the areas we visited."
