Today I had a chance to bird the Ohio River from the Falls of the Ohio to 
just past the Big Four bridge, and  had wonderous results.  Later on I 
birded from my parents average suburban front yard with some luck as well.  
While birding at the Falls I saw a very hyperactive large raptor flying 
around by Shippingport Island that I believe to be a Bald Eagle based on 
shape and behavior.  The list is below(in the interest of the GBBC I've 
decided to be thorough):

Double-cr. Cormorant 1
Canada Goose 10
Mallard 45-50
