[TN-Bird] Four adult Western Kingbirds/ three imm. Scissor-tailed young

Today, I decided a quick run by was in line for the Western Kingbird nest  
site. The nest has evidently been abandoned but unlike earlier this week, I  
quickly found 2 adults feeding in the immediate area. I scanned around and soon 
 
found a second pair of adult birds and had all four in view at one time. One 
of  the second pair made 2 trips to one location but was not carrying food. I  
think there is a new nest that is being worked on.
 
There are 3 young Scissor-tailed Flycatcher being fed at the President's  
Island nest site. The female was shading the nest the whole time I was there 
and  
the male made one feeding trip.  

Good  Birding!!!
