[birdky] West KY and Ballard WMA

Started early this morning at West KY WMA and then to Ballard for some 
shorebirds.  Shorebird habitat at Mitchell Lake is improving  with the sandbar 
at the levee just visible today.  Lower beaver dam slough is where most of the 
shorebirds were seen with a few more at Burnt slough which is drying up 
quickly.  Most other water holes are growing up in weeds and or drying up.
