Barn Swallow, 3 Tree Swallows and 6 Northern Rough-winged Swallow. (Kevin
Calhoon)
The first report of Cliff Swallow, Northern rough-winged Swallow, and Barn

Two Blue-headed Vireos were singing about three miles in on the upper trail
at the Bowater Pocket Wilderness in the North Chickamauge Creek gorge in
Hamilton co. on March 14. (Kevin Calhoon)
It is possible that the Peregrines have a nest somewhere on the south tower
on the trestle below Chickamauga Dam. Keep your eyes open for behavior that
might help us figure out what is going on with them. (Harold Sharpe)
The next general meeting of the Chattanooga TOS will be on April 9 at
7:00 PM at the Accension Luthern Church, 720 South Germantown Rd.
Get out in the Field and let me know what you see!!
