This morning I relocated the Bewick's Wren that Terry Witt recently found =
in Murfreesboro.  It sang regularly from 9:30-10:15 am in spite of the =
windy conditions.  Eventually it perched out in the open for some nice =
photo opportunities.  It went back and forth between the 2 big cedar trees =
on the property and the fence by the driveway.  The family that lives in =
the house at 5512 Lytle Creek Rd let me bird no problem, they just gave me =
that "you want to do what" look. =20

Directions to the bird (from Terry's post): Follow Dilton Mankin Road from =
US 41 south of Murfreesboro, and turn right at the T on Lytle Creek Road; =
at the top of a hill, you will come to a collection of houses and =
outbuildings.

I forgot to mention my first Common Nighthawk at my house in Smyrna, =
Rutherford County, on Sunday, 27 April 2008.

Cheers,
  Scott
