Maine Shorebird Survey. Wildlife Department, 

 Nutting Hall, University of Maine, Orono , ME. 

 The important seabird nesting islands (see 

 chapter 14, "Waterbirds") , all wading bird 

 nesting colonies, and known shorebird roosting 

 areas are plotted. Systematic surveys of 

 seabird nesting islands and wading bird colonies 

 have been conducted in recent years (Erwin and 

 Korschgen 1979). Shorebird roosting areas have 

 not been systematically inventoried. Only known 

 important roosting areas have been included in 

 the atlas (see chapter 14, "Waterbirds"). These 

 data are based on shorebird surveys. Most of 

 the shorebird roosts identified in regions 5 and 

 6 have been verified.

 No systematic survey of osprey nesting 

 territories in coastal Maine has been conducted. 

 Existing information includes incidental 

 observations from the above sources. These data 

 are most complete for island nesting 

 territories. An osprey symbol denotes the 

 presence of one or more osprey nesting 

 territories .
