Bells Bend area
Davidson Co., Tennessee
2012 Nov. 3

Went to Bells Bend this Saturday morning to look for sparrows and
pipits. The latter birds were found out there last weekend by
Phillip Casteel. A walk through part of Bells Bend Park resulted
in a single LINCOLN'S SPARROW and plenty of WHITE-CROWNED and
FOX SPARROWs. At the last sod farm field on the left as you reach
the river, I found a flock of 45 AMERICAN PIPITs in the stripped
sod part of the field toward the back that is now dirt and bits of
new grass. During the half hour I watched them (about 10 am) they
got up and resettled about 5 or 6 times, eventually coming close
enough so that I got reasonably good scope views.
