LUBEC: Maine's Best Kept Winter Birding SECRET.

Lubec is in the farthest corner of Downeast Maine, right next to Canada. It's an awesome birding hotspot year-round. It's particularly good in winter, because there are so many good spots to find wintering eiders, scoters, loons, buffleheads, long-tailed ducks, and red-breasted mergansers. Great cormorants are present. Black guillemots are always nearby. Razorbills and murres come in close.

Great video! As someone who lives in the area, I appreciate that he really knows about the area and describes it so well!

When the Tide changes in spring and summer at the Lubec boat ramp, there is an incredible shrimp concentration in the rough waters coming to a sharp turn at the jetty. I've been standing on the very end of the manmade jetty and seen Seals come up to the top with a packed full mouth of 2 -3 inch long glass shrimp. and baby eels. And of course because of a dozen or so Seals being in one spot you might see a good sized Great white shark in the area. (Top mid channel of Bridge looking down).

My husband and I love to camp at Cobscook Bay. Just a short and scenic trip to Quoddy. Such a beautiful area.

Any Snowy Owls in Acadia in the winter?🦉

Could some of the sparrows be “Ipswich” Savannah sparrows? I saw 5 yesterday on Plum Island in Massachusetts.
