["Ben Yandell" <by@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Around noon today, Mary Walter and Mike Yandell found 3 juvenile
buff-breasted sandpipers at the Falls of the Ohio and were nice enough to
share them with me.  The birds were to the right when looking toward Wave
Rock (at the end of the trail to the right from the Interpretive Center).
The birds can be difficult to see, because they blend in with the rocks and
crouch down in various depressions when something flies over.  

Also seen in Louisville today:

vireos:  Philadelphia, yellow-throated, warbling, red-eyed.

warblers:  magnolia, Am. redstart, chestnut-sided, black-and-white,
Wilson's, Nashville, blue-winged, blackburnian, n. parula, common
yellowthroat, Tennessee

also:  Swainson's thrush, red-breasted grosbeak, summer tanager
