Blackbottom Shoals, Elizabethton, Carter County, TN

Dianne Draper and I checked on the three Yellow-cr. Night-Heron nests on city
property behind the sewage treatment plant. From now on, for lack of a
better name, I will refer to this area as Blackbottom Shoals. We found a bird
on
each of the three nests, sitting tight and laying low. We also found a fourth
bird just starting a new nest, increasing the number of known active nest
sites in Elizabethton (including the Sycamore Shoals nest) from four to five.
We also saw a Red-shouldered Hawk again, who seemed to me to watch us
closely as we left, repositioning once to get a better view of us. I suspect a
nearby nest.
