[Beckhambc@xxxxxxx]

This morning we birded the Ohio River from Cox's Park to the Falls of the 
Ohio. 

Three Bonaparte Gulls and a very cooperative Merlin that perched in the tree 
were at Cox's Park.  Eddie was able to take several pictures of it.

The Red-throated Loon was still present at the Water Tower. While we were 
looking at it a Peregrine Falcon landed on an electrical tower across the river 
in Indiana.

We saw a couple of Pied-billed Grebes and 4 Coots at Towhead Island.

At the Falls of the Ohio there was an assortment of birds that included 
Cormorants, Great Blue Herons, Great Egrets, Kestrels, Pintails, Turkey and 
Black 
Vultures.

The storm coming through tonight might bring in more birds to the river.
