I spent part of the afternoon birding the Paradise slag ponds at Peabody WMA,
Muhlenberg Co. Directions on the KOS website at:
http://www.biology.eku.edu/kos/birdingky.html#westky
Great Egrets 11
Black-crowned Night Herons 2
Western Sandpipers 6 (at least)
Least Sandpipers 43
Semipalmated Sandpiper 1
Greater Yellowlegs 4
Lesser Yellowlegs 1
Spotted Sandpipers 3
Pectoral Sandpipers 4
Short-billed Dowitchers 4 (These were on the upper pond. While walking back to
my car I heard the yellowlegs call. I looked up to find 2 of the yellowlegs and
the dowitchers had gotten up, began climbing higher and flew off to the south.)
Ring-billed Gull 1
Caspian Tern 1 adult
Common Tern 2 adults
Northern Harrier 1 male
Bell's Vireos

The big basin across from the S5 road had only Killdeer, 1 least and a Spotted
Sandpiper on it.
