Seven members trekked across Auburn and Lewiston Lakes and Rivers in search of ducks and migrants. Clouds quickly moved in, however temperatures were seasonable warm for November – in the mid 50’s. We visited several areas along Lake Auburn, the Androscoggin River and Sabattus Pond. Highlight of the day was a Wilsons Snipe that did a showy fly-by in Sabattus. 28 Birds seen and/or heard are as follows:
