ASK had a nice morning out at Shaker Village south of Lexington. We walked the fields mostly with a little woods mixed in. Did not get down to the river this time. With it being overcast, the heat wasn't so bad. We had a nice look at a Red-hd Woodpecker flying around showin us all that white in the wings and rump, plus had some good looks at Dickcissel, Grasshopper Sparrow and Common Yellowthroat. It was also nice hearing the Bobwhites all morning. They have done such a nice job of restoring native habitat out there.
