["Wallace Coffey" <jwcoffey@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Allan Trently:
Shady Valley is in Johnson County, TN.  The nest near Beaverdam Stream in
Shady was the first Johnson County
nesting record.  The Wahoo nest you found today is the FIRST Sullivan County
record.  That was an excellent find.  I was in Kingsport (Sullivan Co.)
today and saw the Yellow-crowned Night-Heron nests which Rick Phillips and
Rick Knight found along Reedy Creek.  That brings the total to five (5)
nests found within just a few miles along the stream.  Very interesting.
Thanks for the good post.

Let's go birding...
