The Scissor-tailed Flycatcher continued near the Cheatham Dam Friday, May 22.
After cruising up and down the length of the recreation area a few times and
watching around the dam, we saw the park ranger and asked him about it. He
informed us that during recent days, it had been hanging around a boat ramp.
We went to the ramp and waited. After several minutes, it perched on a utility
wire across the road from the ramp. The boat ramp is the first one on the left
after entering the park and turning right.
