The KOS/Beckham fieldtrip to the Sloughs WMA in
Henderson County today resulted in 82 species being
recorded by 19 observers.  

Highlights of the trip were extended looks at a very
cooperative LeConte's Sparrow from close-focus
distance, and through-the-scope close-ups of a Least
Bittern which sat in the open in full sunlight.  

Species of particular interest observed were:

American Bittern
Least Bittern.....Ky late fall date
Bald Eagle
Merlin
King Rail
Sora
Marsh Wren
Sedge Wren
LeConte's Sparrow

It was a fabulous day, and I wish to extend my
appreciation to all the participants.
