Anna, This nesting is getting late. The latest nesting dates available at the time the "Atlas of the Breeding Birds of TN" went to press are: nest with eggs - 7/17, nest with young - 7/31, and dependent fledglings - 8/27. For many birds nesting in TN, including several songbirds that are fairly common, we have relatively little information on their nesting habits during mid-summer. A major reason for this is because many fewer birders are out looking for nesting songbirds at this time of year, compared to late spring and early summer. Please keep an eye on this nest, and let me know the date on which the young leave the nest.

Wood-Pewee Hi all, I've got an Eastern Wood-Pewee nesting at this time in the yard. The eggs must have hatched, both parents are seen feeding. Is this a late nesting, or pretty typical for this specie? In response to a posting by Wallace Coffey, I think middle aged men talk a lot more about Victoria's Secret as compared to middle aged women... The bird question is a serious one.

In conversations with a birder on The Farm, Bewick's Wrens have been seen there from time to time. =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to sign your messages with first and last name, city (town) and state abbreviation. ----------------------------------------------------- To post to this mailing list, simply send email to: tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to: tn-bird-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Topographical Maps located at http://topozone.com/find.asp * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Visit the Tennessee Ornithological Society web site at http://www.tnbirds.org * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TN-Bird Net Owner: Wallace Coffey, Bristol, TN jwcoffey@xxxxxxxxxx (423) 764-3958 ========================================================= =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to sign your messages with first and last name, city (town) and state abbreviation. ----------------------------------------------------- To post to this mailing list, simply send email to: tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to: tn-bird-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Topographical Maps located at http://topozone.com/find.asp * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Visit the Tennessee Ornithological Society web site at http://www.tnbirds.org * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TN-Bird Net Owner: Wallace Coffey, Bristol, TN jwcoffey@xxxxxxxxxx (423) 764-3958 =========================================================
