Well, after todays birding I doubled my number of Green Herons. So I am up to
8 this year.
But I have no Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, no Black-and-white Warblers, no
Lincoln’s Sparrow.As brought up earlier this season: Bluebirds are almost
non-existant for me.

This has been an odd Spring migration for sure in Jefferson Co as well.
High numbers of some species, I think I personally had more Blackpoll warblers
this spring than I have ever had. Also several locations of Henslow's sparrow,
Black-billed Cuckoo, and Connecticut Warbler all which can perhaps be a hard or
easily missed bird species.
While notable misses and low species count include Golden-winged Warblers (
none in Jefferson Co. that I'm aware of), Lincoln's Sparrow, Philadelphia
Vireo and Green Heron as well.
It would be interesting to see other trends or differences around the state
concerning this 2015 Spring Migration.
Good Birding

1) I have seen exactly 4 Green Herons this year in KY. 1 in each of only 4
occasions; out of my 54 KY checklists for Mar, Apr, & May.They definitely seem
under normal numbers.

I've been wandering around western Kentucky by car and kayak lately. Three
things that I thought I'd share with this group.1) I can't seem to find Green
Heron's anywhere. Are they hiding under low branches as I paddle past or are
they missing?2) I encountered either a Red-shafted or hybrid flicker on the
levee in Fulton County. I chased it around but it would not pose for a photo.
Could not say for sure which it was but it was a fun bird to see.3) We started
our MAPS sessions at Clark's River NWR yesterday. We recaptured an Acadian
Flycatcher that we first banded 05/29/2009. This was exciting data for our
station, this bird was an adult in 2009. That bird has traveled a lot of miles
in those years.Enjoy a save holiday weekend. HapMurray, KY
