Hi all, There only only a few shorebirds hanging out in the mist at Minor Clark on Friday... and most of them were sleeping in the rocky edges of the drained ponds so they weren't as obvious as other times so I might have missed something. The best bird of the day was a raptor, a male Merlin flew over, scared up a group of Blue-winged Teal, and found a perch on a chain-link fence along the edge of the big ponds where he remained for the entire time I was there. Semipalmated Plover 1 Killdeer 17 Pectoral Sandpiper 15 Least Sandpiper 1 Semipalmated Sandpiper 1 Solitary Sandpiper 1 Wilson's Snipe 1 As for migrant song birds, there were some decent birds out today. Various migrants around Daniel Boone National Forest seen were: Magnolia Warbler Tennessee Warbler Black-throated Green Warbler American Redstart Bay-breasted Warbler Nashville Warbler Canada Warbler Wilson's Warbler Yellow-throated Vireo Red-eyed Vireo Warbling Vireo Swainson's Thrush Good Birding, Brian Wulker ================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
