Oh, Columbia Magazine! Thank you for this amazing photo! Also for the access to the website (All About Birds), where you not only see the birds, you can listen to their songs. A gigantic thank you to all concerning this photo! Check out the All About Birds website. Awesome!!! -JUDY MORRISON.
All the thanks goes to an amazingly awesome Adair Countian, Maury E. Lewis and to the for now, Innocent Bystander who took the photos at her request. CM is a charter member of the Maury E. Lewis Fan Club. Just a reminder, too, that the Great Backyard Bird Count is not that far away. It's down the road just past the election, Thanksgiving, Christmas in Columbia, Christmas Day, and New Year's. In 2012, it will be February 17-20. It's time to do a little extra study on Bird ID. As far as can be determined. The MauryBird photo is worthy of an entry in the World Record Book of Guinnesses as a first ever in CM's Birds of Kentucky.-EW

Birds of KY: MauryBird needs ID. ANS.: American Bittern



2011-11-02 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Innocent Bystander.
Can anybody help? This bird was at a cell phone tower yesterday. I am having a difficult time identifying it. Maybe a CM reader can help. - MAURY E. LEWIS
Former Game Warden Ralph Jackson suggests it may be an American Bittern -BRITT JACKSON. Thanks. A check at All About Birds, Bittern has a entry which matches the heron like bird Maury Lewis found.
