Today I led a field trip to Cherokee park for the Beckham bird club and was joined by 15 members and guests, including members of the Young Birders of the Bluegrass. So great to have young eyes and ears along today! Birding was slow but decent. We ended with 75 species with a last minute flyby Eastern kingbird I did not tally on birdlog. Highlights include a cooperative foraging Bay-breasted warbler, red-headed woodpecker still hanging around maple road area, flyover Broad-winged Hawk, prothonotary warbler and a Northern waterthrush found and correctly identified by Tanner Shephard of the YBB! Thanks for all that made it out today! Good company is just as important as great birds.
