Booth Road, Gibson County
 
I worked on Booth Road in Gibson County yesterday and had a few interesting 
birds in the scrubby habitat along this road:
 
Eastern Kingbird - 2
Northern Parula - 1
Prairie Warbler - 1
Common Yellowthroat - 2
Yellow-breasted Chat - 10
Indigo Bunting - 8
Blue Grosbeak - 1
Dickcissel - 12
Field Sparrow - 2
 
In the yard at home I found a Chipping Sparrow nest with young and there is 
quite a bit of suspicious whitewash on the lower limbs of the Sugar Maple tree 
where the Green Heron nested last year. I did not see a nest but this tree is 
very dense and I will investigate closer. There are also up to 3 
Chuck-will's-widows singing across the road at nightfall.
 
Good birding,
