Norther Pintail - pair, Riverview Drive, Barton Cove, Gill, Franklin Co., MA. March 21st, 2014.
This pair appeared very briefly before disappearing and I only saw them in flight.
Red-breasted Mergansers - males, Barton Cove, Gill, Franklin Co., MA. March 21st, 2014.
Heavy crop of extremely distant birds.
A couple of local year firsts today with an American Woodcock displaying over Boyle Road, Gill and a Killdeer in a field just 200m NE of our home on Main Road, Gill. Both were heard pre-dawn (insominia does have some advantages!) but the day was hardly spring-like with raw winds from the northern quarter and squally snow showers.
