Last weekend while driving through the Caney Fork River area of I-40 in Smith
county, I noticed a large group of vultures, which awoke my bird senses, then
some nests high in some trees on the right (south) side of the interstate.
At first I saw one bird that I couldn't identify, but as we passed and the sun
angle changed, I saw about 4-5 great blue herons on nests, and about 12 total
nests. This was just west of the 3rd ot 4th river crossing going east, not
far from the rest area.
