Hi Tim, and others,

No, Michael Bierly's book has not been updated.  He has been quite
busy working on Tennessee's Important Bird Area (IBA) program the
last couple years.

While we would all benefit from a re-write of this book, I think
it'll take some cajooling to get it done, as it was a huge task when
first done.

However, you can find lots of current information (more added all the
time) on the Tennessee Ornithological Society web site: 
www.tnbird.org.  There is also a link to the IBA website on there.

I also suggest you take your son to a meeting of the Nashville
chapter of the Ornithological Society.  They have a lot of
experienced members, and have great field trips.  That chapter will
be hosting the Spring meeting, as well.

And if you're ever near Knoxville, please drop me a line and come to
a meeting of the Knoxville chaper of TOS.  We meet the first Wed
evening of the month.

Good luck,
Charlie
