Cumberland River overlook
Brookmeade Greenway
Nashville TN
July 25th I observed a Cedar Waxwing "flycatching" over the Cumberland River. 
It was flying tight figure-eights up and down, over and back and was feeding 
on what appeared to be white moths. There were many swifts and swallows 
feeding along the river as well. Chimney Swifts, N. Rough-wing Swallows, Barn 
Swallows, adults and immatures, Purple Martins, adults and imms..

Many Purple Martin immatures/juveniles were perched on limbs over the river 
and next to the golf driving range adjacent to the greenway, begging away and 
feeding on their own.

Brookemeade Greenway is in west Nashville behind the Wal-Mart off Charlotte 
Rd.
