Observation details

I had one (not full breeding plumage=immature?) in Gloucester Harbor and two in the Annisquam R. (one from Rte. 127 bridge over Goose Cove; one from Lobster Cove, giving point blank looks and allowing photos). FOY & MA state. Also found two dead birds floating in considerable storm wrack next to Captain Hooks restaurant--1 bird (very good condition) was salvaged for the MCZ. Major wreck began on Monday, 16 Apr and has produced ~20 birds in harbors of eastern MA and ~20 seen as flybys.
