[birdky] Western KY birding

I was paddling around Crappie Hollow in Blood River when a Pied billed
Grebe popped up in front of me.  It quickly dove out of my way.  I saw  it once
more before it was out of my view.
The DC Cormorants have taken over the trees that the Purple Martin's
roosted on every year.  I don't think the martins are coming back this  year.
Today at Open Pond in Fulton County I came across a small group of
sandpipers.  Least Sandpipers were expected but the Western Sandpiper was a  
nice
surprise.  Killdeer were gathered in every wet spot.

Listed below are the highlights of the last couple of days.
