05 May 2011:
Water has risen markedly at all transient bodies of water in Logan County.
I actually thought to myself, holy "excrement", this pond grew. The KY 739
Transient Pond covers approximately 2x its previous maximum observed size
and now contains an island. (Past observations at this location are NOT
extensive.) Present today were:
5-May-2011
Logan
KY 739 Transient Pond
Mallard
2
Blue-winged Teal
~10
Pied-billed Grebe
2
American Coot
~10
Semipalmated Plover
~10
Lesser Yellowlegs
~20
Solitary Sandpiper
1
Other species noted included a Summer Tanager, Wild Turkies, and Killdeer
Water was also high at the Hall's Store Transient Pond. Observed there
today were:
5-May-2011
Logan
Hall's Store Transient Pool
Solitary Sandpiper
1
Lesser Yellowlegs
8
Mallard
1
Hen with 10+ ducklings
Water at the US 431 Transient Pools was exceedingly high, but no interesting
birds were observed.
That concludes this report.
