[TN-Bird] Re: Glossy Ibis - Dyer Co. TN

On May 28 Nancy Moore and I had the Glossy Ibis on Great River Road at Mile
Marker 5 a little while after the Satterfields did.

 Last evening about seven I went back and did not find it in the area.  This
morning Nancy Moore and I found it .5 miles north of Mile Marker 1 on the
GRR opposite a point where a road goes into the field in Moss Island Refuge.
We  placed an orange and white barrel there for identification.  While there
we had a single Fulvous Whistling Duck to fly over head going north.

Last evening I checked the Owlhoot location for these Ducks and found at
least four in the same location.  Today, Nancy and I found at least 9 there.

 The Scissor-tailed Flycatchers have been observed at the Cargil location
just west of Wynnburg where they nested last year by the employees at
Cargil.  They observed the mating ritual and the birds bringing nesting
material to the same location on the end of the overhead rails where they
were observed last year.  However, Nancy and I have been unable to find them
today.  We checked both in the morning and afternoon.

 Bank Swallows were observed nesting at Heloise at the east end of the
 Choctaw Gravel and Sand Complex.
