7AM went to Middle Creek Elementary in Ohio County to observe the much talked about Blue Heron Rookery. Jim and I both went and after a quick scan of the heron nests began to observe other birds. My first birds included Yellow warblers, Red Eye Vereos and a Yellow Thorated Vereo. The a new song got my attention. I studied for at least 10 minutes with no ID........ I had never seen or heard the bird before. When Scott Shallaway arrived he took some time and then made the identification of Lousiana Waterthrush... so add that to the life list.
We then proceded to the middle creek damn where we saw phoebe, wood duck, heard scarlett tanagers, tree swallows, and a hawk that we did not ID, probably a sharp shinned.
