Nice report. I'm almost tempted to visit Loooosianna and do some paddling. Speaking of Pileated Woodpeckers, the other day we were driving down the road near Hope, ME, and saw two of them on a telephone pole. They seemed a bit confused by the pole, circling and testing it. . . Really beautiful birds. Yesterday, I woke up here in Lincolnville Center, ME and saw a large Great Blue Heron just outside the cabin. Working on my building site later in the day, we saw a Bald Eagle soaring along the coast, apparently engaged in some sort of disagreement with an Osprey and a couple of gulls. This morning, there was a gaggle of Canada Geese just off the dock at the cabin. The two Loons that circle the small island 200 feet away were there, as usual. For my birthday last week, I received an awesome pair of Swarovski binoculars ("fully submersible"). They've been getting some good use <g>.
