Robco Lake and Ensley Bottoms
Shelby Co. TN
 
At Robco Lake, there is a full breeding plumaged Common Loon. A stunning  
bird up close and personal. Ring-billed Gulls numbered 14 plus a full 
breeding  plumaged Bonaparte's Gull with a dull winter plumaged first year 
bird. 
Ruddy  Ducks are hanging in three groups with a total of 17 birds.
 
At Ensley, the Semipalmated Plovers of the day before had been replaced  
with 2 First Of Season Semipalmated Sandpipers. A Peregrine Falcon was keeping 
 up everyone's attention and a single Harrier skimmed the newly mown field  
looking for casualties. At TVA Lake, 10 male Lesser Scaup were eyeing a 
single  female and a hen Pintail was a surprise.
 
 
Good Birding  !!!
