[tn-bird] 100!


Woohoo!  I reached the goal I didn't even want to say out loud that
I was shooting for.  One hundred yard birds within the first year at
the new house.  I had thought about this all summer after I hit the
mid 80s last spring and realized it might be possible.

Saturday I spotted a Philadelphia Vireo!  Not a bad bird for #100.
It spent about 15 minutes foraging around in the trees in the edge of
the woods.  We now have had all the vireos for TN in the yard EXCEPT
Blue-headed (and Bell's).

This morning we had our first Yellow-bellied Sapsucker of the
fall checking out last year's sapholes in the top of a hickory.
