Bird Watching in Ocean Park

CardinalThe following list was compiled by Genivieve (Mrs. Phillip) Webb. She was an authority on local ornithology, had been a member of the Maine Audubon Society, and was a director of the Maine Chapter of the Nature Conservancy.

Since this list was complied, cardinals, titmice, mockingbirds, glossy ibises, blue-winged warblers and Carolina wrens have become Maine residents.
