The highlights of this updated are a Hudsonian Godwit at the Falls of the
Ohio and a Long-billed Murrelet on the Ohio River in Louisville.
A Hudsonian Godwit was observed on the fossil beds of the Falls of the Ohio
on the afternoon of October 30th. The bird was reported to be on the fossil
beds in the midst of gulls and very difficult to locate. There has been no

area of the Falls of the Ohio State Park in Indiana.
The Long-billed Murrelet was observed as recently as October 31st on the
Ohio River. The latest observation was well upstream from the previous

Duffy's Landing in Indiana and the Water Tower Museum in Kentucky. Previous
observations had been made between downtown Louisville and the Water Tower
Museum. In addition to the Murrelet, at least 5 Surf Scoters and 2
