["Scott & Glenda Record" <sgrecord@xxxxxxxx>]

Having a late start this morning I arrived at the dams around nine.  The wind 
was already whitecapping the lakes but overall several species of waterfowl and 
gulls were viewable although not in abundance.  Highlights include:
Can goose
Gadwall
Mallard
Canvasback
Ring-n duck
Lesser scaup
Bufflehead
C. goldeneye
Hooded merg
Red-br merg
Pied-b grebe
Horned grebe
Bald eagle
Bonaparte's gull  (energy lake)
Ring-billed gull
Herring Gull
Lesser blk-bk gull  (1st winter  KY dam marina)
Pileated woodpecker
Purple finch (feeder at home)

I only saw  200 to 300 gulls between the dams with probably 70 % of them below 
Barkley.  There was another 50 to 100 at energy lake.  Most of the 150 or so 
divers were seen from Boyd's landing.
