This is the Kentucky Bird Line, sponsored by the Kentucky Ornithological
Society. This update is current as of August 8, 2005 at 11:00 AM EDT. The
highlights of this update are:
Hello. Some late summer wandering seems to be taking place. The dry
conditions have limited the habitat for shore birds and waders, but where it
exist there have been some good sightings. In Fulton County’s lower Hickman
bottoms a juvenile WHITE IBIS, and a juvenile TRICOLORED HERON were spotted
on the 4th of August on pond# 9. The TRICOLORED HERON has been seen through
the 7th, but the IBIS has not been seen again. Also at this location on the
4th a fly-over ROSEATE SPOONBILL was observed; first flying north then later
south and not relocated since. A ROSEATE SPOONBILL had been seen a few days
early just south of the Kentucky border on Reel Foot Lake.
In addition, a single juvenile LITTLE BLUE HERON has been seen as late as
the 6th at the Minor Clark Fish Hatchery of Rowan County; not a common sight
that far east in Kentucky.
Thanks for calling the Kentucky Bird Line. You may leave a report after the
