This weekend is the 2007 Great Backyard Bird Count.  Hope everyone is
ready to head out, see some birds, and report them online at
www.birdsource.org/gbbc.  
 

Last year Tennessee birders reported 123 species, just shy of the 2001
record of 124 species.  Will this year be the year to beat that pre 9/11
record?  Last year, birdwatchers in the state submitted a record 1,277
checklists during the count.  It would be great to see even more
checklists submitted.

 

So, take your friends for a bird walk this weekend, enjoy some nice
birds, and report them online as part of the GBBC.  Have fun!
