While getting back from fishing this morning I heard the song of a
White-crowned Sparrow. Thinking a mockingbird was playing tricks on me I
looked around for the bird (I did not have binocs at first) and found it.
Did a quick playback of its song and it switched to alarm chips and got
really agitated. I had my co-worker grab me some binocs just to get a
visual on the bird. I assume this is just a really really late migrant as
I have not heard it singing around the area until today.
While picking up catfish jugs this morning on the Kentucky River on the
Madison/Clark county line I had a few decent breeders:
Acadian Flycatcher- several
Worm-eating Warbler- 1
Prothonotary Warbler- 6-7 males
Yellow-throated Vireo- 3
Yellow-throated Warbler-2
I also found a nesting colony of Cliff Swallows above Silver Creek
yesterday.
