While Canada geese are the poster children of migration in this area due to their noisy honking and artistic flight patterns that catch the eye and ear of just about anyone who drives anywhere, walks to the mailbox, or has a window, we have many species in Maine that also migrate. Warblers, woodcocks, red-winged blackbirds, some bats, various sea-run fish, and even whales migrate to or through Maine at some point during the year and right now is one of those prime times of the year to observe migration in action.
