As a few of you know, I have taken a position in Houston, Texas and will be
moving down next week.  As a result, today was my last day birding in
Kentucky (at least for a while).  Marissa and myself had a decent morning
(for the county).  We pretty much just birded Owsley Fork and it has lots
of shorebird/waterfowl habitat present.  The following birds were
noteworthy for the area:
Worm-eating Warbler- 1 in a PINE tree
Pine Warbler- 7-8 of all different shades
Chestnut-sided Warbler- very drab bird
Magnolia Warbler- seen by Marissa
Least Flycatcher
Little Blue Heron- 4 juvi
Semipalmated Sandpiper- 1
Pectoral Sandpiper- 3 at Owsley, 1 at White Hall
Solitary Sandpiper- 1 at White Hall
Least Sandpiper- 4
Semipalmated Sandpiper- 2

Two distant ducks appeared to be teal sp. based on size comparison with
mallards.  It has been fun getting to know y'all and wish you many good
days afield.

Andy
