[David Trently <dtrently@xxxxxxx>]

On Tuesday May 11, the Tennessee Valley Nature Club will hold a trip to look 
for butterflies at Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge. I am posting this here 
because all our members are currently birders and we will certainly be looking 
and listening for birds as well, and I'd like to encourage more birders to get 
involved with studying other wildlife as well.

We will meet at the Refuge at 6:15 p.m.
Directions:
in east Knox County... I-40 Exit 402 (Midway Rd). Head south (following refuge 
signs) on Midway Rd for 2 miles. Turn LEFT onto Maples Rd. This road ends at 
Kodak Rd where you will turn RIGHT. After about a quarter mile, turn LEFT onto 
Kelly Lane, at a small white church. Kelly Lane ends at the parking lot for 
the Refuge.

I recommend bringing along something to drink. We'll be out in the sun looking 
for the butterflies. The nature club is working on a list of all living things 
we can identify at the refuge. Maybe you'll help us add new species to that 
list.

Some of the birds we have a good chance of seeing there: Bald Eagle, N 
Bobwhite, Summer Tanager, Orchard Oriole, Grasshopper Sparrow, Blue Grosbeak.

We'll have more of these types of trips soon. Unless anyone complains about 
the announcements on the TN-Bird list, I'll include them here, always with 
bird information as well!!
