north end of Mud Island at Wolf/Mississippi River confluence

Jeff Wilson just called with two Cave Swallows among the Rough-wings where 
the Wolf River dumps into the Mississippi, at the north end of Mud Island. 
He doesn't think he's been able to get diagnostic shots yet, as the birds 
are usually distant. Jeff had a quick look at a Cave here a couple of years 
ago, without being able to get a diagnostic shot (flying swallows are tough 
subjects!). He will be going back this afternoon to try and refind the 
birds, results will be posted. I have to work tonight, but plan to be there 
in the morning afterwards.

Good Birding!!
