Kentucky Lake, November 4 2014.
Pace Point
Not much of interest here, less than 100 Ruddy Ducks in the winter raft, two
Common Golden eye females among them.
Rocky Point
350 Common Loons, all came in close for excellent viewing. Several with some
alternate plumage remaining. 0 rare loons among them. One Lesser Black-backed
Gull was seen here as well.
Lick Creek Mudflats
1 adult Peregrine Falcon, seen catching and killing a Killdeer, then it took
the Killdeer and crossed the lake. Last seen high up, several miles out,
circling with lunch.
Britton Ford area
Numerous Swamp, Song, White-crowned, Field Sparrows, with atleast one LeContes
Sparrow back in appropriate winter habitat. (Should be there for the Christmas
Bird Count) Also one late female Indigo Bunting.
Eagle Creek
One lone Black Scoter (female type) diving out in the middle of the lake.
