Happened to notice a roost ring on radar awhile ago, so I toured area NWS radar
sites looking for others. The distribution of Purple Martin roost rings is sort
of odd. Predictably, though, I guess, they are most noticeable in western &
southern KY. Did not see a thing at Louisville or Lexington. A roost east or
southeast of Madisonville was very noticeable on all radars around it; it must
be pretty large. Others noted included London, Williamsburg (or east of town),
[both very noticeable only on the Jackson radar site], north of Hickman, and
small traces of roosts along the Crittenden/Webster County line, and along the
Butler/Ohio County line.
