This update is current as of September 14, 2004 at 12:00 PM EDT. The highlights of this update are: As of Saturday the 11th the LONG-TAILED JAEGER was still being seen above the Kentucky dam. It has spent much of the time well out in the lake and may take sometime to locate. It is an intermediate juvenile that appears black at a distance. Other notables would include a REDDISH EGRET juvenile located on island #1 on the Mississippi river in Carlisle County on the 11th. And a PLEGADIS IBIS juvenile seen on willow pond. It was thought to likely be a WHITE-FACED IBIS. Other birds on interest were 24 BOBOLINKS, as well a single SORA, and a CONNECTICUT WARBLER all in Jefferson County. A female ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK at a backyard feeder in Campbell County. And 4 MISSISSIPPI KITE, and 3 SANDERLINGS seen in Laketon. Thanks for calling the Kentucky Bird Line.
