[TN-Bird] NTOS field trip Saturday, March 22

 
Saturday, March 22 - Mill Creek Greenway and Percy Priest  Lake
 
Continuing our birding exploration that we started last fall of  Nashville's 
impressive greenway system, we'll check out Mill Creek Greenway on  Harding 
Pl. east of I-24.  We'll walk a level, paved trail that follows the  tree-lined 
creek.  After that we'll carpool over to Percy Priest Lake  (just 10 minutes 
away) and bird a few spots including Hamilton  Creek and Elm Hill marinas, the 
dam, and Anderson Rd. Recreation  Area, looking for breeding plumaged loons 
and other waterfowl, and any  early migrants.  I had 4 FOS Tree Swallows today 
at Mill Creek, and several  beautiful Common Loons at the lake.  Meet at Mill 
Creek Greenway at  7:30.  It's located on Harding Pl. 0.7 mile east of I-24.  
Turn into  the driveway just east of the Fire Dept. Station #4 where there's  a 
big, white sign saying Sheriff's Correctional Complex.  Then take an  
immediate left which goes to the greenway parking lot.  This may  just last the 
morning, but bring a lunch just in case, and your  scope.
