    An early morning kayak around Taylor Bay (Barkley Lake) revealed birds 
of note. I enjoy kayak viewing because you don't have to mess with the 
scope, and if you are alone and very quiet,  you can see and hear them much 
closer.

BC Night Heron 2
Caspian Terns 2
White-eyed Vireos
Red-eyed Vireo (heard one)
Horned Grebe  (what a red eye and streak! at first I thought it was bleeding)
Lousianna Waterthrush
Prothonotary Warblers
Yellow-throated Warblers
American White Pelicans (8)  floating in the back of the bay
Two  Rough Wing Swallows were bringing twigs into a hole in the bank of the 
lake.  How much chance do they have of producing offspring before the lake 
rises??

Returning to my cabin on Jonathan Creek (Ky Lake) I found Warbling Vireo 
and Orchard Oriole singing.  A male RT hummer was still present at the 
feeder.

Returning home to Murray I heard the ubiquitous House Wren calling for the 
first time in my back yard.    This bird is my nemesis.  I can only hope 
that the Almighty has some plan for this bird.
