This is the Kentucky Bird Line, sponsored by the Kentucky Ornithological
Society.  This update is current as of October 29, 2002 at 8:00 PM EST.  The
highlight of this update is a Long-billed Murrelet at Louisville.

A Long-billed Murrelet was observed this afternoon on the Ohio River in
Louisville at about 1:10 PM EST and again at about 5:30 PM EST.  This bird
will be a Kentucky first record and all observations should be documented
and sent to the Kentucky Bird Records Committee.  The KBRC address is at the
end to this message.

The bird was observed at the Museum and Water Tower at the junction of River
Road and Zorn Avenue.  This is an old large brick structure painted white.
To reach this location, take Interstate 71 NE from downtown Louisville to
exit 2, Zorn Avenue.  From here, turn north (left) and travel a few hundred
yards to River Road.  Cross River Road onto the Water Tower Museum property
and attempt to observe the bird from the "right" side of the building where
there are a few picnic tables.  The DeLorme Atlas coordinates for this
location are page 35, quadrant B-6.

The Kentucky Bird Line requests that all observations or lack thereof be
reported to "birdky" or The Kentucky Bird line at bennetts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or
at (502) 326-0878.

Thanks for calling the Kentucky Bird Line.  You may leave a report after the
tone.  Please include your name, the date, the location, and the time of
your observation when filing a report.  If your report contains rare or out
of season species, please send appropriate documentation to the
