[TN-Bird] Scissor-tailed flycatcher (TN) and Michigan trip photos

After spending 2 weeks in May searching in vain for a Connecticut warbler (I 
figure I walked past at least 6 that were reported by others), I decided to go 
check out the Scissor-tailed flycatchers that Terry Witt had reported 
previously in Rutherford Co, TN as a consolation prize.  Two birds were present 
on Wilson-Overall Road, one of which cooperated for pictures.

I also got the chance to spend 2 1/2 days in Michigan birding with my parents, 
who are from there and lived in Mio at one point.  We had the pleasure of 
running into David Trently and a group of other east TN birders on our first 
Kirtland's warbler tour out of Grayling on 6-4-09 and Chuck and Lola Estes a 
couple days later.  A few photos from the trip are also on the flickr site at 
the above address.
