The 108th CBC season officially begins tomorrow, Dec. 14, but the count
week period for many TN CBCs started yesterday; hope you've been able to
get out and check a few of the local birding sites within your CBC
circle if your CBC takes place Saturday.  I got out a little this
morning and found Red-breasted Merganser and Bonaparte's Gull on the
lake at Cane Creek Park.  Since neither is a regular species on the
Cookeville CBC, they were nice count week species to record.
 
If you need to refresh your memory about species that would benefit from
documentation on TN CBCs, please visit this page of my website which
lists all species ever recorded on TN CBCs in the past and provides
annotations for those for which some details or photos would be helpful
to CBC compilers:
 
ttp://iweb.tntech.edu/sstedman/CBCDocumentationSpeciesTN.htm (copy,
paste into your browser, and add an "h" at the beginning of the
address).
 
This page also has a link to a table of data about all 51 sites where
CBCs have been conducted in TN in the past. The table includes
information about when each TN CBC was first conducted and last
conducted, as well as infomation about the total number of CBCs that
have been conducted at each site and the number for the most recent
consecutive series of CBCs conducted at each site; this page in turn has
a link to a map of TN showing the location of all active and inactive
CBC sites in the state.
 
Hope your CBC season is a good one, Steve Stedman
