8-20-15Sod Fields on Highway 99, Eagleville, TN
My mom, my youngest two siblings, and I took a swing by the sod fields in
Eagleville this morning. There were LOTS of shorebirds, and I had 12 species,
the best being 5 SANDERLINGS (photos if needed). A list is below. All of the
birds were moving back and forth between the two sod fields, but most were in
the field closest to the highschool. I expect different species could show up
throughout the day, and we'll probably check again this evening.
