As the update is posted this evening, Wednesday, May 13, 2020, Adair County continues to have far more cases and deaths than any surrounding county or any of the ten counties in the Lake Cumberland District Health Department of which Adair is part. The majority of the cases come from the nursing home which has been closed to visitors since March, however, as essential workers must come and go, it is possible for the virus to spread from there into the community at large requiring extra care to be taken by all leaders in determining reopening procedures.

All About Birds offers some good advice about these tiny birds: "When you hear its calls during spring and fall migration, make sure to look through tree branches. Warblers and other migrating songbirds associate with chickadees, and by looking through the chickadees you’re more likely to find these other species as well." This bird was in the same tree as a prairie warbler and a baltimore oriole.
