[TN-Bird] West Tennessee

In addition to the Black-necked Stilts reported by Jeff, there is at least 
one pair back in White Lake Refuge and there are two pair in the Bogota 
TWRA. I have been working with some of the farmers  in the area to show them 
where the Stilts are nesting.  There is a lot of interest in these birds by 
many of the farmers.

Saturday, Betty and I found at least one nest at the south end ofBogota TWRA 
that had been run over by some equipment.  The eggs were not broken but 
spread over a couple of yards.  At least two pair of Stilts were in the 
north end of the same area,

On Friday, Glen Criswell, Betty and I covered White Lake.  In addition to 
the Black-necked Stilts there we had 110 White Pelicans and at least one 
Tri-colored Heron.
