    Black-necked Stilt / Himantopus mexicanus

    Wanderer: May 3-4, 2025 on Great Duck Island.

    Miscellany: Maine has hosted Black-necked Stilts fewer than 20 times, with only two east of MDI; Lubec mid Jul 2003 and early May 2004, both reports as yet unconfirmed. Interestingly, a Black-necked Stilt was seen and photographed May 3, 2025 on Monhegan Island; perhaps the same individual continued east to Great Duck?
