Saturday July 17 South Pittsburgh, Marion Co, TN I found a nest on the light pole described by the Wilkersons (below), and a hatchling beak could be seen in the nest. I did not see any adults at the nest while I was there, but I did see a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher on a wire within a block of the nest. I posted a couple rough photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/timjeffers/4805163199/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/timjeffers/4805163287/ Tim Jeffers East Ridge, Hamilton Co, TN http://www.flickr.com/photos/timjeffers/ On Wed, Jul 14, 2010 at 2:58 PM, <TenacBirder@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > ----- Forwarded Message ----- > Subject: Marion Co.
