We hiked the coastal barrens of the Prospect Peninsula today (Oct. 27,
2012) and I saw my first autumn *Harlequin Duck *(a male) off the High
Head.  Just the lone bird.

There were a few migrants as a result of the north wind:

3 Lapland Longspurs
2 Snow Buntings
1 Horned Lark
5 Black-capped Chickadees (migrating)
3 American Goldfinch

Very few other water birds because of the off-shore wind: 3 Long-tailed
Ducks, a single eider, and one gannet.
