I spent the day on Barkley and Kentucky Lakes searching for hurricane birds, but apparently the low moved a little too far east for a fallout at the dams area. I also checked Barkley as far south as the 68-80 bridge. The weather did produce a nice fallout of migrant Caspian and Common Terns however, with totals of approximately 250+ and 70+ respectively. Four Black Terns were observed from the 68-80 bridge on Barkley, and 30-40 Forster's Terns were scattered on both lakes. A Laughing Gull was also present at Kentucky Dam. Birding any significant body of water, particularly south and east of the path of the low associated with Katrina, could possibly turn up rarities for a few days. David L.
