I'm traveling to the New England coastal area mid-August and am hoping to find some good spots for early migration. I plan to spend a day or two on the Cape and then go up the coast to New Hampshire. I will travel into the Maine coastline if there are some really "hot" spots anyone knows of. Any suggestions would make this a really _great_ vacation for me and would be extremely appreciated.

I've enjoyed the Rachel Carson Wildlife Preserve in Saco, Maine. This is a very nice marsh with plentiful waterfowl. Over the years I've seen glossy ibis, willets, godwits, herons, egrets, a variety sandpipers and plovers, yellowlegs, commorants, etc. How much you see will of course depend on the tide, patience, and just plain luck. You can rent a canoe at the preserve and paddle through the marsh for a different perspective. Let me know if you need more information or precise directions. -- Bob Armao (bob@brspyr1) | If u cn rd ths sgntr, UUCP: ihnp4!dartvax!brspyr1!bob | u cn mk Bg $$ induh xitng BRS Information Technologies | wrld ov dkumntshun.
