Location details from Rodney:
"Sometimes it is quite a distance away, other times it is close. The
location is the Airport viewing access road off of Donaldson Hwy at
the NKY/Greater Cincinnati Int. Airport in Boone County, KY."

Also, could someone forward this information along to the appropriate
Kentucky email list(s)?

Good birding,
Paul Hurtado
