Radnor Lake State Natural Area Nashville-Davidson County, TN 08 October 2006 - I spent a brief time (30 minutes or so from 8:15-8:45) at Radnor Lake this morning on the Spillway Bridge. The activity was quite impressive--a constant darting of birds, the majority being Tennessee Warblers (20+) in that one spot. It seemed every bird I got my binocualars on was a Tennessee Warbler. At one point I had three in view all foraging in the open on a bush honeysuckle drenched in sunshine. Interspersed with these warblers were a few Magnolias, a few Yellow-rumped Warblers, a Black-throated green Warbler and a fair number of Rose-breasted Grosbeaks. The activity was beginning to subside when the call of Killdeer flying overhead got my attention as if to signal my time was up.
