Drove over to Lake Lemon for a quick look to see what was around. Didn't find any of the shorebirds that had been reported from there recently, but I did manage to reach number 200 on my Indiana list with a BANK SWALLOW (also year bird number 173) hawking insects over the water. I'm surprised it took me so long to find such a common bird. A few minutes later I found a YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT (Indiana state bird number 201, year bird number 174) and a Golden-winged Warbler (year bird number 175).
