[TN-Bird] Whooping Cranes, Nashville

Hi all,
  I sighted the pair of Whopping Cranes this morning, Thursday, at 11:15 =
am.  Same spot as previously posted in Davidson County.  The birds were =
not in view in the hour beforehand and as I was going to make one last =
drive-by before heading back to work, there they were.  I've corresponded =
with the Crane coordinator and through a great picture Richard Connors =
took of the birds, the color band combination was confirmed and this pair =
of birds was last reported in Kane County, Illinois. =20
    The crane folks do not have a spotter in the area, so if you look for =
the birds and find them (or not find them), please email the list serve or =
me directly at Scott.somershoe@xxxxxxxxxxx as I am going to try to feed =
the crane folks with info so they can track them vicariously.  Nice to =
find a couple "lost" birds.

Many thanks!!
