I just returned from a trip so am late on the discussion of Dickcissels. In the past few years we have had one or two nesting pairs on our property or alone Griffin Graves Creek Rd in Henderson County but this year we have often seen 12 or more along the 1 ½ between Barren Church Rd and our place. There are also more Blue Grosbeaks than usual. Alan Gehret Henderson, KY L.
