The Herndon Bird Club Nightjar survey to Fish Springs planned for tonight is 
canceled because of the predicted bad weather.  At the June 4 club  meeting 
(Monday, 7 p.m. st Sycamore Shoals), we will consider rescheduling this survey 
in the later suitable (based on moonlight) window of June 27 to July 11.  

The two earlier surveys--Dry Creek and Milligan--were postponed from Tuesday, 
May 29 to last night, Thursday, May 31.  Both were run last night and were 
successful in hearing both Chuck-will's-widows and Whip-poor-wills.  The Dry 
Creek route was completed, but the Milligan route was terminated after the 
sixth count stop because of rain.  Tentative plans to re-run the Milligan route 
are for after the Club Meeting, this Monday, June 4 (7 p.m. at Sycamore 
Shoals), weather permitting.   As noted in an earlier announcement, some 
members and visitors will meet at Bellicino's on South Roan St. in Johnson City 
at 5:30 p.m. to eat and socialize before the meeting.  

All are invited and welcome to attend the club meeting, to join us at 
Bellacino's and to participate in the nightjar survey at Milligan after the 
meeting.

If you have questions, please send email or call me.
