[tn-bird] Re: Shrikes

I am hoping that Jeff Wilson is right about the shrikes possibly nesting in 
the K-Mart parking lot tree, however, they were not to be seen this morning 
when I was down there around 9:30 AM.  In Florida, I was very familiar with 
shrikes nesting in several spots on our large tract of land (now a 
subdivision, shopping center, etc. near Orlando.)   They particularly liked 
some of our more thorny citrus trees (to spike their catches) and the one 
lone, scraggly peach tree which stood in the center of our ten acre 
watermelon patch.  My only reason for suggesting that these might be migrants 
is that I have never before seen any this close to the Charlotte Park 
neighborhood in my twenty-three years of living here.  Hopefully, this is a 
sign that they are going to set up housekeeping a little closer by.
