[birdky] Fulton Bay Lake Barkley

Jenny Howard and I kayaked around Fulton Bay Wildlife Refuge today.   Most of 
our sightings were the usual summer residents with a few  surprises.  
In the back of the bay we came across a group of Green Heron young near  
their nests.  Three downy young at different stages clambered for safety  when 
they spotted us.  This was the first time I have seen multiple nests  in a 
heronry style setting for Green Herons.  
Other birds of interest were:
Wood duck - with young
DC Cormorant
Great Egret
Little Blue Heron
Green Heron
Osprey - 6 (1 flying juv and 1 still on the nest)
Bald Eagle - 2

Red-shouldered Hawk
La Waterthrush - 1 juv 2 adult
Orchard Oriole
 
Hap
Murray, KY
