[Bristol-Birds] Carter Co. Chuck-wills-widow

After the Herndon TOS meeting at Milligan Tues. night, Reece Jamerson and I 
went to the Patton-Simmons Cemetary on Toll Branch Road, where the 
Chuck-wills-widow was heard about this time last year (thanks to insider 
knowledge from Howard Langridge).  We enjoyed the quiet evening sitting in 
the dark and listening to strange sounds around the cemetary - Cope's Gray 
Treefrogs, Spring Peepers, American Toads, and finally Chuck-wills-widows.  
Whereas last year it was heard calling from the forest behind the cemetary, 
this time it seemed to call while flying around the nearby homes, yards and 
streetlights (- possibly feeding?).
