I had my first flock of warblers at the Cravens House (Lookout Mountain,
Hamilton Co.) on Sunday, July 23. It was composed of one female
Cerulean Warbler, three American Redstarts, three Black-throated Green
Warblers and a single Black and White Warbler.
A Yellow-crowned Night Heron was present in a ditch on along Greenway
Ave. (it is the road off of Brainerd Road that goes to the Brainerd
Wal-Mart) on July 24. This location adjoins the Brainerd Levee and I
always suspected it would be a good place to see the species, even
though it had not been seen there before.
While kayaking and fishing downriver from the Raccoon Mountain intake
boat ramp on the Tennessee River in Marion County on July 24, I observed
two Louisiana Waterthrushes on the bank. I assume they were migrants.
I also found a juvenile Little Blue Heron in a slough, my first ever for
Marion County.
