Today, April 22, I saw one Lesser Yellowlegs and a Least Sandpiper at the edge 
of a pond on Cages Bend Road, one mile south of Gallatin Road, halfway between 
Gallatin and Hendersonville, in Sumner county.  If not for riding the bike, I 
wouldn't have seen them.
 
Later at Drakes Creek Park, where Gallatin Road crosses Drakes Creek on Old 
Hickory Lake in Hendersonville, Sumner county, I found at least 6 Spotted 
Sandpipers in the shallow cove past the soccer field along the edge of the 
lake.  Eight Blue-Winged Teal were also in the cove, but all but two flew away. 
 Following the trail to the other side of this small cove, I saw 3 and heard 
more Palm Warblers, and heard one Common Yellowthroat.  A Gray Catbird was 
sighted along the creek.
 
At home in Hendersonville, I saw my first Indigo Bunting of the year at our 
feeder.  I also had a flyby of a Hummingbird, likely Ruby-Throated.
