On the Greenbelt at the American Way access:
Friday evening, one Yellow-crowned Night-Heron. Saturday there were 4 
near two nests. Monday there were 3 --- apparently 2 males and a female. 
One of the males chased the other away from the nest while the 3rd heron 
watched. Then the male got on the nest and spread its wings in a 
display. There are several nests (about 6) in this area. There were 
others that have blown down over the winter.

This area of the green belt is accessable from a parking area on 
American Way behind the Americourt Hotel (formerly the Ramada Inn), 
intersection of US 11W and TN 93 on the east side of Kingsport, TN.
