This is the Kentucky Bird Line, sponsored by the Kentucky Ornithological
Society.  This update is current as of November 7, 2002 at 5:00 AM EST.  The
highlight of this update is a Western Grebe on Lake Cumberland.
 
A Western Grebe was observed on Lake Cumberland on November 6th and 7th.
The bird was in the Waitsboro area near Somerset.  Directions are as
follows:  From Somerset, take US 27 south and turn right just past stoplight
number 29 and go to the end of the road.  DeLorme Atlas information for this
location is page 69, quadrant I-3.  3 Tree Swallows were also observed in
the area on November 6th.  On November 4th, 130 Bonaparte's Gulls, 6 Horned
Grebes, 8 Common Loons and a Red-breasted Merganser were observed on the
lake above Wolf Creek Dam.
 
The Rufous-type hummingbird made a brief return visit to its Danville feeder
on November 7th at about 7:50 AM.  The bird has been intermittent in
attendance at this feeder for several days.  The feeder is at the home of
Neil and Ginny Eklund (eklundn@xxxxxxx).
 
Barren River Reservoir has hosted some interesting birds recently.  On
November 4th, 2 Franklin's Gulls, about 50 Common Loons, 37 Horned Grebes
and 2 Tree Swallows were observed at various locations on the lake.  On
December 6th, similar species and a late Barn Swallow were observed.
 
Other birds of interest include a Blue-headed Vireo and several American
Pipits in Warren County and common water birds on the Ohio River at
Louisville.
