Nov. 18. Common raven(s) at Pine Mountain State Resort Park. First
sighting was about 10 in the morning near the Laurel Cove Amphitheater. Low
flyover with a crow following. Second sighting was about 4 in the
afternoon. Several streaming turkey vultures with a few red-tailed hawks
mixed in; then a red-shouldered hawk and a raven. I don't believe the raven
flapped once the entire time it was in our view. The 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
observations may well have been two different birds.
No other noteworthy birds observed, including no pine siskin or ruffed
grouse.
Also took a brief trip to Cumberland Gap today. An out-of-range Brainard
was the most notable sighting.
On the way home, saw a lone snow goose (blue form) flying over I-75 mm 53
and 5 sandhill cranes around 2 p.m. near Shelbyville, I-64 mm 35.
