[TN-Bird] St Flycatcher nest in Rutherford County

I finally managed this morning to find the ST Flycatcher nest on Florence Road 
in Rutherford County.  It is on the telephone pole overlooking the quarry at 
the Tn 840 overpass, directly across from the "John Sallee" bridge sign.  When 
I went by there early, the female was on the wires, no sign of the male.  When 
I returned, she was on the nest, but a couple of hours later, neither bird was 
in  sight.  Not sure whether there are even eggs yet, but hopefully there will 
be an extended family soon.  The birds in the past have tended to stay in the 
general area even after fledging, until moving south in the fall, which seems 
to be on the early side of fall migration  There were also 2 E Collared Doves 
there this morning
