ASK had our scheduled walk out at Shakertown, south of Lexington this Saturday, a hot sunny day. We had a decent turn out and totaled 54 species including Dickcissel, Blue Grossbeak, Yel-br Chat, Summer Tanager, Prothonotary Warbler. We had only 4 warbler species, down from the high counts from migration just a few weeks ago seeing just our local breeding species.
