There is one more roost to add to the list this year way over in east Kentucky
near Williamson in Pike County on the WV border. Maybe Joan of Art and Nature
could find this one.

Just did a tour of area NWS radars. One thing about this exercise, the scale
at which you look at the radars is not really large enough to pin locations
down well. When the locations are actually found on the ground, the site
makes sense (i.e. it lines up well with the radar), but it's just a guide
when you go looking.

Roosts I saw this morning from west to east:

Hickman or north of there, Fulton Co.

Madisonville (just se of town as reported by the Grahams); PLUS there was an
interesting little satellite roost out to the east from there.

Bowling Green ... looked to be right in town; first time I've seen one there
ever

"Lexington" ... was actually down in northern Jessamine County today, which
was sort of where it was a couple of weeks ago

I-75 corridor ... interestingly, three roosts are lined up right along I-75
again this year ... middle of Rockcastle County, London, and Williamsburg
(the last is probably where it was found last year)

Ashland ... south of town again, probably out near the Interstate

I shot some video of the computer screen this morning; I'll see if it is any
good and load a couple of very short videos to the KOS Flickr site tonight or
tomorrow.
