57º clear, rising to 73º

Uniontown Dam: John T. Myers Lock & Dam, Union Co.

Below the dam sandy areas
Killdeer 5
Spotted Sandpipers 3

Coming up the river were flocks and flocks of Double Crested Cormorants.
They were in flocks in numbers ranging from 10 up 200.
There must have been several thousand.
I assume they were heading for Hovey Lake FWA in Posey Co., IN, since I did not seem 
them when I went further up the Ohio.

Grassy Pond/Powells Lake Unit: Honey Cypress Slough
50 Great Egrets.

1574 slough
1 Yellowlegs

Shorebird Unit
Killdeer 2
Least Sandpiper 3

Note on the Sloughs:
At Wood Tract and Hardy Slough water was being pumped into the impoundments.
