took a walk with my grandchildren on the farm after church and lunch.  We saw 
and heard the following highlights:
  Hooded Warbler, Scarlet Tanager, Prairie Warbler, Blue winged Warbler, Worm 
eating Warbler, Louisiana Waterthrush.  
   
  Still present at the feeders, Pine Siskins, Purple finches, Junco and White 
Throated Sparrow (singing, love the song).
   
  I visited the eagle nest at Cave Run on Friday, and sadly, the parents have 
abandoned the nest.  Fred Busroe and Wes Maddox had reported no activity about 
2 weeks ago.  Friday we did see the adults but they were not hanging around the 
nest as they have done in the past.  The nest looks droopy, not as sturdy as 
before.   A number of things could have caused the loss of this nest.   I think 
we were spoiled due to the success of the past years.
