Thursday after work I checked this field and found about 2 dozen
Bobolinks. At first I parked at the edge of a driveway on the
southeast corner of the field and saw only a Red-Tailed Hawk, several
Eastern Meadowlarks, a loud Mockingbird, and Red-Winged Blackbirds, but
driving to the northwest side of the field I heard an unfamiliar bird
call from the stop sign where Del Rio Pike turns west. There is no
room to park, so I turned around and drove north 150 yards to a
subdivision and parked there on the side of the road and walked back in
the weeds on the side of the road. I heard 1-2 Dickcissels, then heard
and saw a flock of birds coming in for a landing, and it turned out to
be the Bobolinks. About 1/3 were visible on tops of the plants, and
the rest were invisible from the road. This was around 6:30pm. Thanks
Jan for the heads up. TN#198 for the year.

Late this afternoon I saw and heard 5 Bobolinks at the southeast corner
of
the usual field they've been seen in the past on Del Rio Pk. in
Williamson
Co. This is just north of White Hall subdivision and White Hall Dr.
Some
were in the vetch and others singing on top of the cedar trees that
line
that field. Wonderful songs! There was one singing Dickcissel there
too.
