On Saturday, June 14, six members of the Buchanan County Bird Club participated 
in the annual breeding bird survey for the county. The weather was beautiful 
and the birds were active. We counted a record number of 74 species for the 
survey. Some of the more unusual species found were Barred Owl fledglings, 
Cerulean Warbler, Kentucky Warbler, Eastern Kingbird, Grasshopper Sparrow, 
Horned Lark and Whip-poor-will. The complete list is below.

Thanks to all of those who participated in the survey. They were (in 
alphabetical order) Don Carrier, Lynda Mayhorn, Roger Mayhorn, Daryl Owens, 
Jane Thornhill and Jerry Thornhill.
