Cheatham County Nine NTOS members shared an exceptional outing today. It appeared we were going to get rained on as the day began, but it didn't and we even had some sunshine later in the day. We viewed more than seventy species. The neotropical migration has begun and it's great to see these little guys again. Some highlights include; nine warblers, Orange-crowned, Blue-winged, Black-and-White and Prothonotary were good spots, all the vireoes except Philadelphia, good scope looks at a lurking Sora, Bald Eagle on nest and Scarlet Tanager. The wildflowers were breathtaking. Gary Casey Kingston Springs, Tn. Talk and walk softly, carry a big scope. =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to sign your messages with first and last name, city (town) and state abbreviation. ----------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- To post to this mailing list, simply send email to: tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to: tn-bird-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TN-Bird Net is owned by the Tennessee Ornithological Society Neither the society(TOS) nor its moderator(s) endorse the views or opinions expressed by the members of this discussion group.
