At least four Hooded Mergansers were seen at gravel pits in Boone County on 
June 21. The gravel pits are located along Ky 20 approximately 1 mile southwest 
of Petersburg. These areas are private property so discretion should be used if 
visiting the site. Two birds, both appearing to be juveniles were present in a 
pit near Horsley Ferry Road. Another pit about one quarter mile further south, 
also had two birds that appeared to be juveniles. This sight had three 
immature/female birds last July. It seems quite likely that these birds 
represent nearby breeding. Also present were numerous Bank Swallows entering 
and leaving their nest cavities in hte gravel pit.
