Today I traveled a few miles north up I-75 to try for my first Red-necked Grebe 
at Reba Lake Park in Madison County, Kentucky.  Reba Lake is 150 miles north of 
Knoxville in Richmond, KY, just 3-4 miles from exit 87.  It was well worth the 
drive.  The grebe was easily seen from the boat ramp area in the park and was 
at times quite close.  The scope came in handy but if you don't have one, you 
can proably still get decent looks at the grebe.  It has been there since at 
least February 17.  Also on the small lake were 7 scaup and a male Common 
Goldeneye.
