May 27, 2011 Crittenden Co. AR Just across the Mississippi River from Memphis, in Crittenden Co. AR, I now have 3 confirmed locations where a (or the?) Roadrunner(s) has/have been seen. The first was at the Tom Sawyer Camp Grounds just south of I-55 on the banks of the Mississippi River. There was a bird seen recently by a few non-birders, 6 miles north in Marion and another spent a few days near Clarksdale about 7.5 miles north of Marion. All locations are along the railway tracks heading north along Hwy 77. If the bird or birds just take the spur track heading across the bridge, then we might get one in Tennessee;o) Good Birding!!
