[Bristol-Birds] Herndon Bird Walk, Elizabethton, TN

The Lee & Lois Herndon Chapter TOS held the first of four Saturday October 
bird walks at Sycamore Shoals State Park, Elizabethton, Carter Co., TN on Oct. 
7.

Attending were Tess Cumbie, Gil Derouen, Reece Jamerson, Brookie and Jean 
Potter, Bryan Stevens and David Thometz.

We had eight species of warblers: Tennessee Warbler, Northern Parula, Cape 
May Warbler, Black-throated Blue Warbler, Black-throated Green Warbler, 
Blackburnian Warbler, Palm Warbler and Hooded Warbler. The male Hooded Warbler 
was 
present streamside at a fallen, moss-covered log, exactly in the same location 
as 
seen by Stevens on Friday.

We had a total of 39 species.

Other good birds included: Chimney Swift, Tree Swallow, Blue-headed Vireo and 
Pied-billed Grebe.

Three more Saturday walks remain in October. Everyone is welcome. Meet at 8 
a.m. in parking lot at Sycamore Shoals State Park each Saturday in October.
