Well, I thought I was supposed to lead a bird walk this morning for the 
Clarksville Chapter (Warioto) Audubon Society and the Clarksville Greenway 
group, but apparently I didn't get the message it was cancelled, because I was 
the only person who showed up. wazzupwidat?
I went anyway, and I'm glad I did beacause I got several FOY birds and others 
as well. 
The condtions were awful (brisk and breezy with overcast skies) but the birds 
didn't seem to care.
I decicded to take the southern route from the parking lot, after listening for 
a while, waiting for other birders to show. I walked from the parking lot to 
the small bridge overlooking the swampy area, where I got lots of good birds. I 
would've had more, but some I couldn't indentify, because frankly, I'm not that 
good. More ears and eyes would've helped. But I'm not bitter. Just 
disappointed.
