I've had birders in from California and Oregon recently but finally had  
some time to check some nesters around here.
Tree Swallows are nesting at both the upper and lower  Hatchie NWR in 
Tipton and Haywood Counties. Willow Flycatchers  were found on territories at 
two 
locations in Shelby  Co. The first was seen calling from some willows near  
where I first found them nesting in Shelby Co, years ago. The second bird 
was  found calling in the Wolf River bottoms off of Third street.  
 
Grasshopper Sparrows were found feeding young on  President's Island along 
with 6 active Western Kingbird nests,  a Scissor-tail nest and a hybrid 
nest. Two nests of Western  Kingbirds at Ensley, 2 more off of Kansas Street, 8 
more were found in  north Memphis and I photographed one of the pair that 
nested again this  year at the Pyramid in downtown off of Front Street.  
Good Birding  !!!
