[tn-bird] Shorebird and Wading Bird Use Chickamauga Lake

Dear TNBIRDERS:
Thank you for the many responses sent answering my appeal for information on 
Eurasian Collared Doves in Tennessee.  I would now like to pose a second 
question to you.

We (TWRA) are in the process of writing a federal grant to support projects in 
the Chickamauga Lake Project Area.  To justify need, TWRA has been building a 
case based upon the significance of the area to all birds including waterfowl, 
songbirds, wading birds, and shorebirds.  Using existing data and Partners in 
Flight Plans, we have done fairly well with songbirds, waterfowl, and sandhill 
cranes.  However, we lack adequate data on what shorebird and wading bird 
species use the area and what specific habitats they frequent.

Could anyone that has this data please send it to me, privately off the 
listserve so as not to litter it with this information exchange.  Thank you 
again for your help.

Sincerely,
