GORHAM — Dianne Doherty of Jewell Street was the first person to report sighting a Roseate Spoonbill to N.H. Audubon on Friday evening, July 30. She and her husband, Maurice, observe a lot of wildlife in the expansive public works yard on the Androscoggin River.
The next morning, she was able to forward a video to the statewide nonprofit organization that left no doubt in anyone’s mind that she had made the correct identification that added another species to the list of birds sighted in the Granite State.
