A good number of warbler species made reports this week. Highlights included

Swamp. Other songbirds of note were PHILADELPHIA VIREO in Jefferson Co,
SWAINSON’S THRUSH in several locations across the northern part of the
state, YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHER with 2 Jefferson County sightings, and
ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK from Boone County. Also seen in Boone Co at the
Gunpowder Creek Nature Park was the first reported WHITE-THROATED SPARROW of
the season. And reports of RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH, one from Campbell County
at the Evergreen Cemetery in Southgate and one from Jefferson County, were
made.



Both BAIRD’S SANDPIPER and BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER were seen at the Falls of
the Ohio this week, both as juveniles. 4 BLACK-BELLIED PLOVER, and a single
SORA were reported from the sloughs of Henderson County. And LAUGHING GULL,
