Good morning! Well, last evening about 9:00 I tried to post the following
message to the listserv. I did not realize until a few minutes ago that it
did not go through for some reason. Here is my second attempt.

Where have all the Least Bitterns gone this year (not there are ever very
many)???? I sure do not know. But, today we were very fortunate to see one
fly at Big Island. Great thanks go to Ron Sempier who frequently birds Big
Island and heard two there today. To find the area, go to the THIRD
impoundment west of Espyville Rd.  on LaRue Prospect Road. The pull-off is
on the north side of the road. Park and walk due north. There is marsh only
the right side. You will come to a duck blind that is only for handicapped
hunters. Just north of this blind there is an opening  that allows you to
look across the water to cattails. We saw the bird flying north to south
and back again over the cattails. We did not hear it call.

Bug spray is essential!!!!!!
