Here is the summary of the Clarksville CBC compiled and forwarded by Debbie 
Hamilton.
Daniel Moss
Clarksville, TN


The Clarksville, Montgomery County, TN CBC was conducted on Saturday January
3 with 13 field counters and 5 feeder counters.  It was an unusually warm
day (67 F) and mostly cloudy.  70 species were recorded which is slightly
below the average of 72 in the last decade.  Only two species of ducks were
seen this year. The count circle has very limited lake habitat so the number
of species is always low.  Wild Turkey, American Robins and Yellow-rumped
warblers were present in abundance.  Eastern Bluebird numbers were 1/2 of
what has been found in the past two years and Blackbird numbers were
extremely low.  Misses were Winter Wren, Loggerhead Shrike and Hermit
Thrush.  Highlights were Purple Finch, American Pipet, Rough-legged Hawk,
and Chipping Sparrow.  Field observers were:  Daniel Moss, Randy Ellis,
Steve and Debbie Hamilton, Gloria and Bill Milliken, Elaine Foust, Joe
Schiller, Duane Rice, Alan Bottomlee, Kathy DeWein, Barbara Wilbur and Suva
Basin.  Feeder Counters were Sally Schiller, Sally Noel, Nita Heilman,
Louise Podell, Hallie Minniehan.
