Yesterday, while my wife Alison participated in a knitting group at a Russellville shop called Enchanted Yarn, I sat on the back porch of the building reading a book. This shop is located on the lower slope of one of Russellville's many wooded knobs. Eventually, I dicided to climb to the top of a faux pirate ship structure built for kids in the back yard and see what I could see with my binoculars. I soon spotted a Scarlet Tanager at about eye level feeding in a nearby black cherry tree. Only my 3rd sighting of a Scarlet Tanager. Frank Lyne frank@xxxxxxxxxxx near Dot in Logan County
