About same no. of black terns flying so. low over Lake Barkley main lake yesterday out from mouth of Little River. Seeing more Caspian terns. Ed Ray Trigg Co.

A Great Blue Heron behind a bush in the water as I paddled by thought it was hid and didn't fly off as usual, bringing a smile to my face. At first I didn't see anything different and the Little Blues weren't around, then a few things started to drop in. Before I left one of the Little Blues flew in and began to feed. Least Sandpiper 11 Lesser Yellowlegs 2 Pectoral Sandpiper 1 Spotted Sandpiper 7 Killdeer approx. 40 Black Terns 14 all adults just beginning to go into nonbreeding plumage. (At one point they fed around me so close that I didn't need binoculars to enjoy them.) ~Roseanna Denton Science Hill, KY Pulaski County ================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBERS============== The BIRDKY Mailing List requires you to sign your messages with first & last name, city, & state abbreviation. -------------------------------------------------- To post to this mailing list, send e-mail to: birdky@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send e-mail to: birdky-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject line. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Visit the Kentucky Ornithological Society web site at http://www.biology.eku.edu/kos.htm * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * BIRDKY List Manager: Gary Ritchison, Richmond, KY E-mail: gary.ritchison@xxxxxxx --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
