The Nashville Spring Count was held on Saturday, May 7, and  totaled 158 
species.  This was much better than last year's 143, which  was right after 
the flood.  It helped to have a cool, clear morning and  clouds in the 
afternoon to keep the temperature down.  Thirty-two warbler  species were seen, 
only missing Golden-winged, Orange-crowned, Black-throated  Blue, Swainson's, 
and Connecticut.  Some of the highlights included a late  American Black Duck 
at Radnor Lake, 23 Northern Bobwhite in four areas,1  Snowy Egret at Old 
Hickory Lake, 3 Bald Eagles, 1 Semipalmated Plover  in Rutherford Co., 1 
Black-billed Cuckoo at Shelby Bottoms, 2  Scissor-tailed Flycatchers in 
Rutherford Co., 1 Bank Swallow at Percy  Priest Lake, 1 Sedge Wren in Cheatham 
Co., 1 
Mourning Warbler at  Radnor Lake, 10 Grasshopper Sparrows in Rutherford 
Co., 1 Lincoln's Sparrow  at Bells Bend, 21 Dickcissels in two areas, 21 
Bobolinks in three areas, and 1  Purple Finch at Radnor Lake.  Thank you to all 
who helped with  the count and to Scott Block who hosted the compilation and 
compiled the  numbers.
