July 8, 2004:  I visited the South Shore Wildlife Management Area today
in Greenup County.  An adult bald eagle was present.  There are fish in
the larger of the 2 wetlands plus lots of young wood ducks to serve as
food.  The smaller, shallower wetland has receded quite a bit since May
providing plenty of shorebird habitat.  Killdeer were abundant.  I
noticed at least one peep but did not try to positively identify it
without a spotting scope.  It looked like a least sandpiper.  Two great
egrets were hanging out in the tree row between the 2 wetlands.
