Eastern Wood-Pewee - Lake Barkley State Beach, KY        I am from the west coast of North America and have always hear the Western version of this bird and understand that it's name is from the sound that it makes while in the forest. I was somewhat mystified as to why PEEWEE until I heard the eastern version. It is very clear that the Peewee vocal is the reason these birds are named as they are. This was taken at Lake Barkley State Beach on a wood pile just a the bottom of the forested hill.                Michael W Klotz 2022 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com

Solitary Sandpiper - Blue Creek, KY        True to its name, this Solitary Sandpiper was alone in Blue Creek checking the rocks for critters to eat. He was accompanied by cliff swallows not far away on the bank collecting mud for their nests. The Solitary sandpipers are told from the spotted sandpipers at this time of the year by the very obvious white eye-ring. Side by side, the solitary is slightly larger and no tail wagging.                 Michael W Klotz 2022 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
