Sunday 10-5-2003

I took a three hour walk this morning in the WKU woods off Bennett Rd., 
Bowling Green in Warren Co. There were several migrants observed including 
13 species of warblers:

Tennessee Warbler - (10+)
Nashville Warbler - (1)
Chestnut-sided Warbler - (2) both first fall females
Magnolia Warbler - (20+)
Yellow-rumped Warbler - (2)
Black-throated Green Warbler - (10+)
Pine Warbler -(1) singing male
Palm Warbler - (1)
Bay-breasted Warbler - (3)
Black-and-White Warbler - (1)
American Redstart - (10+) one adult male
Ovenbird  - (1)
Common Yellowthroat - (5)

Also highlights observed: Yellow-billed Cuckoo (1), Yellow-bellied Sapsucker 
(1), and  Blue-headed Vireo (2).

On the adjacent WKU farm,  a male Merlin was observed eating an unidentifed 
prey atop a dead tree.

Bobolinks (12)  were flushed from a weedy field across from the WKU woods.
