Observation date: 7/16/10
The Mottled Duck is still feeding in a small puddle along Highway 94 near
Hickman. The shorebirds listed below were seen in the Obion bottoms,
habitat is drying in many spots but the river is still high. The number of
swallows is mind boggling but I put a conservative number on species due to
difficulty of separating them.
