Further details of this observation are not available at this time. Most of these individuals were located along road S-5. Connecticut Warblers were reported in 2 locations this week. A late Magnolia Warbler in Pike County and a similarly late American Redstart in Lexington, round out the migrant warblers reported for the week. A Least Flycatcher was also observed in Lexington on the same date.
Passerine migration is essentially over and shorebird migration is well past peak.
Since the last update most reports of migrants have been of late species of warblers, flycatchers, and shorebirds. It is likely that this location is now dry and, unfortunately, the Falls of the Ohio are now covered by water from the rising Ohio River. Several species of migrants were also reported from Lexington s McConnell Springs on May 8th. The spring migration count in Pulaski County on May 12th produced some excellent finds. A Savannah Sparrow was also reported in Logan County on May 11th.
