[tn-bird] Reeve Report

July 27, 2002
Ensley Bottoms,
Shelby Co. TN

Her Highness held court today with birders from 5 states and all points of 
the compass from the pits. She was unavailable until 9 AM. Around noon she 
became unhappy at not being invited to a Bar-B-Que luncheon held in her honor 
and made herself scarce until after 4 PM. She was last viewed about 7:45 PM 
nonchalantly feeding in the evening shadows.

She has widened her horizons and now can be found in any number of locations 
in and around the pits. She will hold another soiree tomorrow if asked nicely 
and you play her game.

A single immature Western Kingbird was seen 2 out of 3 times we looked for it 
and Baird's and Am. Golden-plover were the only other shorebirds of note 
among the 15 species present. Migrating hawks, terns and shorebirds were seen 
through out the day. Groups of 8-12-16 and 4 of Black Terms were short time 
visitors through out the day.

Good Birding!!!
