Bebirder's Photo Quiz (1 Viewer)

Hint: the 2 things in the back-right arent birds. Theyre lobster pots, this is for the poeple who dont live in Lobster ridden areas like me. THIS IS MORE MEANINGFUL THAN YOU THINK! Where do lobsters live? And Birderbf in wrong.

Wow, that would be one amazing combination to see, wouldn't it? Too bad its wrong. So far I've given several very useful hints, but it seems that no one has been able to find them. Well, FYI, Lobsters live only in SALTWATER. Therefore, this picture was out at sea. Also, Northern New England would describe nothing other than Maine, so this picture was taken in Maine in the Gulf of Maine.
 
When I think of lobsters, I think of Maine!

The photo looks like some adult ducks with ducklings. What duck would have young, in the nesting season and be in the northeastern part of the country.

About the only thing I can come up with is Blue-winged Teal (but these do not really look like teal to me).

It will be interesting to see what these are though.

So, for now, I will go with Blue-winged Teal.
 
Post # 46 says "only 1 species of waterfowl in the photo", oh and "no gulls".
Post # 53 says "2 species in the photo".

So, one species of waterfowl and one other "non-waterfowl" species in the photo.

Well, where do we go from here.....
 
Larry,
Thats means its obviously one of 4 families, Jaegers and Skuas, Coots and Moorhens, Terns and Skimmers, or Auks. I think you might get it now...

Oh yeah and this photo was taken at sea, so eliminate all dabblers and pochards, just sea ducks that breed in maine...
