Hi All, It has been very difficult for me and Les to keep up the pace for our 2 ½ mile walk along the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy River for the past few days. There are so many birds to see and hear that we have to interrupt our concentration on walking and stop, look, and listen. Birds seen there and in the yard: ORCHARD ORIOLE, PROTHONOTARY WARBLER, YELLOW WARBLER, AMERICAN REDSTART, CERULEAN WARBLER, RT HUMMINGBIRD, CATBIRD, PURPLE MARTINS, BARN SWALLOWS, ROUGH-WINGED SWALLOWS, YT VIREO, PILEATED WP, RED-BELLIED WP, N FLICKER, TOWHEE, TREE SWALLOWS, BLUEBIRDS, BR THRASHER, plus all the usuals. Cheers, Joan of Art and Nature in Pike County, South Williamson ================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBERS============== The BIRDKY Mailing List requires you to sign your messages with first & last name, city, & state abbreviation. -------------------------------------------------- To post to this mailing list, send e-mail to: birdky@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send e-mail to: birdky-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject line. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Visit the Kentucky Ornithological Society web site at http://www.biology.eku.edu/kos.htm * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * BIRDKY List Manager: Gary Ritchison, Richmond, KY E-mail: gary.ritchison@xxxxxxx
