I went birding at Louisville Swamp, Scott County yesterday afternoon. Here are the highlights of an active 2 hours of birding.
1 Spotted Sandpiper 1 Black-billed Cuckoo 4 Ruby-throated Hummingbirds 1 Olive-sided Flycatcher Eastern Wood-Pewee (singing throughout) Great Creasted Flycatcher 1 Yellow-throated Vireo 4 Red-eyed Vireo 2 Blue-gray Gnatcatcher 3 Gray Catbird 2 Brown Thrasher 1 Chestnut-sided Warbler (female) 1 Field Sparrow 1 Scarlet Tanager Rose-breasted Grosbeak (a lot, at least 6, 2 F, 4 M) 3 Swallow Species (N Rough-winged, Barn, Tree) Also, I enjoy birding at Murphy-Hanrehan, but its a big place and I'm never really sure where the best places are in the park. I also read many reports on eBird that Bobolinks are seen in the park. Does anybody have advice on where to bird in the park for songbirds in general and also to potentially see a Bobolink? Thanks.
