15 May 2010:

 

This afternoon I was able to scan several ponds between Mosley's Pond and
the Todd County line, just east of Allensville, but in Logan County along KY
102.

 

Mosley's Pond is "overflowed" and numerous transient ponds ranging in size
from an acre to about 15 acres exist.  However, shorebirds are not common
and widely scattered.  Luckily, they are mostly surrounded by planted corn
rather than wheat so visibility at least exists.  Observed this afternoon
were:

 

2 Blue-winged Teal,

~20 Canada Goose (including 4 Goslings),

1 Spotted Sandpiper,

2 Solitary Sandpipers,

5 Lesser Yellowlegs,

1 White-rumped Sandpiper, and

1 Dunlin.

 

That concludes this report.
