This is Kevin Calhoon with the Chattanooga RBA, sponsored by the Chattanooga
Chapter of the Tennessee Ornithological Society.
This is Update Number #10 made on June 4, 2005.
David Patterson reports a pair of Willow Flycatchers back breeding at
Standifer Gap Marsh again this year. For exact directions to the nest
contact David.
Laura Lewis reported a late migrant male Blackburnian Warbler outside her
window at the Cherokee National Forest headquarters in Cleveland (Bradley
co.) on June 2.
Some other late migrants include a singing Swainson's Thrush along Ochs
highway on Lookout Mountain on May 29 and a singing Blue-headed Vireo along
Lookout Creek also on May 29. (Kevin Calhoon)
The results for the National Migration Count in Hamilton county on May 14
have finally been tallied and 135 species were record. Below average, but
not too bad for how late the count was in May this year.
Some of the highlights included:
Cattle Egret
Least Bittern
Forster's Tern
Hooded Merganser
Northern Harrier
Merlin
Peregrine Falcon
Virginia Rail
Sora
Barn Owl
Philadelphia Vireo
Veery
Gray-cheeked Thrush
Blackpoll Warbler
Magnolia Warbler
Northern Waterthrush
Thanks to all seventeen participants!!
The next general meeting of the Chattanooga TOS will be on June 9 at 7:00 PM
at Accension Luthern Church, 720 South Germantown Rd.
Get out in the Field and let me know what you see!
