I don’t think Brainard can fuss at you for this one…according to his own
research in the Annotated Checklist, loons are still migrating through in
good numbers until early May.
BTW, the Annotated Checklist of Birds of Kentucky is a valuable resource for
that very purpose; there are seasonal bar graphs for all KY species in the
appendix. You can also find similar bar charts at www.ebird.org
Nice bird!

Subject: [birdky] Common Loon, Kenlake Tennis Center
While hunkered down at the Lakeview Shelter monitoring construction
activities and Osprey nests at Eggner's Ferry, I heard a loon yesterday. At
least I thought I did, but discounted to my mind playing tricks on me. Then
today, out near the marina visible from the shore at the Kenlake Tennis
Center, I observed a breeding plumage Common Loon. Is this late? I have a
pic but am limited on zoom. Please, someone come verify it before Brainard
tells me I'm way off :)
Thanks
Ian
