Nature on the Saco River

We spotted this bird when we were quietly paddling along the Saco. We pulled up close to the bank of the river and I took some photos. I'm not sure what it is, but it's likely a juvenile.

Here's the bird from a distance. If anyone can ID it for me, I'd appreciate that.

Just when we were about to paddle away from visiting some birch trees on the river bank, I spotted this nest in a birch that was leaning out into the river.
