[birdky] RPT: MCFH 10/24/02

I had a good afternoon of birding at the Fish Hatchery on Sunday. The birds
I observed were similar to those in my recent post about the EKBC meeting
last weekend, but there were a few notable species to add:

Lesser Yellowlegs (about a dozen in a flock)
Common Loon (on Cave Run Lake)
Swamp, Field and Savannah Sparrows

One of my personal highlights was an Osprey that perched in a snag in front
of a tree in blazing fall colors by the oxbow lake. I tried to take a few
digital photos through my scope; I haven't had a chance to look at them yet,
but if they came out as well as I think they did, I may use the image for
wallpaper on my computer!
