This is the Kentucky Bird Line, sponsored by the Kentucky Ornithological
Society. This update is current as of April 05, 2003 at 11:00 AM EST. The
highlights of this update are various reports of spring migrants and

Spring migration is well underway with a number of summer residents and
spring migrants reported since the most recent update. These reports come
from across the state.
Returning water birds and related species reported recently include American
White Pelican, Green Heron, Osprey, Caspian Tern, and several species of
common shorebird.
Two species of goatsucker have been reported in the state thus far. These
are Common Nighthawk in Lexington and Whip-poor-will in west central
locations.
Several species of passerine have returned to the state. A partial list
includes Eastern Phoebe, Barn Swallow, Tree Swallow, Northern Rough-winged
Swallow, Fish Crow, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Blue-headed Vireo, Louisiana
Waterthrush, Black-throated Green Warbler, Pine Warbler, Black-and-White
Warbler, and Chipping Sparrow.
Eurasian Collared Doves have been confirmed with an auditory observation of
a single bird in Frankfort. This represents a new confirmed location in the
state for this invasive species. Eurasian Collared-Doves have also been
observed recently in Russellville and Plano.
