5 December 2005 I birded briefly at various locations on Barren River Reservoir today. The following is a brief summary of birds of note. All birds noted are in Barren County except the birds from Bailey's Point which were either in Allen County or most probably in Allen County. I briefly bumped into David Roemer and expected him to post. Since his post would have probably more accurate and there was nothing special, I waited on him. However, he has not posted, so here it is. Beaver Creek: Barren County 12 Hooded Mergansers 7 Great Blue Herons 100+ Killdeer 10 Ring-billed Gulls 4 Bonaparteâs Gulls 1 Belted Kingfisher The Peninsula: Observed Birds in Barren County 1 Common Loon 7 Ring-billed Gulls 1 Belted Kingfisher The Dam: Observed Birds in Barren County 1 Lesser Scaup 2 Pied-billed Grebes 10 Ring-billed Gulls Baileyâs Point: Observed Birds in Allen County except RbMe and LeSc which may have been in Barren County, but were most probably in Barren County 12 Buffleheads 100 Red-breasted Mergansers (estimate.) 50 Lesser Scaup (estimate) 3 Ruddy Ducks 7 Common Loons 3 American Coots Several; Ring-billed Gulls Few; Bonaparteâs Gulls That concludes this report.
