[birdky] Greenup County, Ky.

On a visit to my home county I spent this morning birding with my brother, Rick.
 
At the marina in Worthington we were surprised to find 9 Cackling Geese and a 
couple Lesser Canadas.  OUr first for the county.
Others seen there included:
Gadwall (8)
Mallards (20+)
Am. Coots (2)
 
Along the road on the way to the marina I was also surprised to see an E. 
Kingbird.  I know it's supposed to be too late for one, but I got a good look 
at it.  We looked for it on the return trip but couldn't find it.  
Other notable species seen along the road:
Red-Shouldered Hawks (2)
Bluebirds ((8+)
 
At the Greenup city park we also observed:
Pied-bill Grebe (1)
 
A total of the following were seen at all or some of the above locations:
GB Herons (6)
B.Kingfishers (4)
 
I enjoyed listening to an immature red-tailed hawk as it soared low over my 
parents farm yesterday afternoon.
