Alright ! Good find. Hopefully they will find a suitable nesting site in the
Cove. I've been hoping for Bobolinks in the Breaks but so far haven't seen any.

Subject: [bcbirdclub] Bobolink in Tazewell County
Jane & I had a single male Bobolink today in the "Cove" section of Tazewell
County. You may recall that this is the area where the Lassie movie was filmed
several years ago. In fact, the Bobolink was less than a mile from the school
featured in that movie. This is our first Bobolink of the year. The nesting
area in Russell County was disturbed last year by heavy grazing of cattle
courtesy of the same bunch that filled in the Mudhole. Cattle are in that
field again this year so my guess is that another unique area is lost.
Happy Mother's Day to all you Moms out there.
Jerry
