This update is current as of August 31, 2004 at 6:00 PM EDT. The highlights of this update are: We had a state first on Sunday August 29th, the first recorded LONG-TAILED JAEGER was observed above Kentucky dam. It is described as an intermediate juvenile, and has continued to be seen through Monday evening. Viewing has taken place from the pull offs on the dam. Of less significance, but still great viewing pleasure: warblers seen in Tom Sawyer Park included BLACKBURNIAN, CHESTNUT-SIDED, PRAIRIE, and AMERICAN REDSTART. Also observed this week was a single WILLET, and a single LEAST TERN; both viewed on the Blood River in Calloway County. Good birding. Thanks for calling the Kentucky Bird Line.
