Yesterday afternoon I took my parents out in the country for a little  pre 
Mother's Day and NA Migration Day bird outing.  We were very  successful in 
finding all of our target species, favorites of my mother and  me.  On Moran 
Rd. 
we had 20+ Cliff Swallows at a bridge over the  Harpeth River, and one 
Red-headed Woodpecker near the intersection of Old  Natchez Trace Rd.  Off of 
Del Rio 
Pk. on Two Rivers Ln. we found  one Grasshopper Sparrow on the fence at the 
first house on the right.   Further down on Del Rio Pk. we found a flock of 54 
Bobolinks in a field where  they were found on our spring count last Sunday.  
They were close to the  road so we were able to get great views of this 
gorgeous bird and hear  their wonderful song.  In a line of cedars right next 
to the 
Bobolinks  we had 2 Dickcissels.
