Follow Maine birds

PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • February 17, 2025

Maine is truly for the birds, as evidenced by the array of photos shared on the Maine BirdsFacebook page. The page, which is private but easy to join, is meant to be an education-based group for sharing experiences about wild birds in Maine. “The intent of this group is to provide a space for members to share sightings, photos, videos and discussion about wild birds in Maine” is in the group’s description. Its 37,000 members understand the assignment. Even a cursory glance at the page will ruffle your feathers with photos of wild turkeys, cardinals, ducks, falcons, owls, bluebirds, hawks and hundreds of other types of birds.
