Following a very enjoyable annual TOS spring meeting hosted by the Knoxville 
chapter, Cyndi and I had a chance to visit Edgar Evins State Park on our way 
home. Most of the rain was behind us, so we were able to enjoy spring migration 
for a couple of hours. Highlights included the following:
 
Yellow-billed Cuckoo -1
White-eyed vireo - 2
Blue-headed vireo -1
Red-eyed vireo -8 
Blue-gray gnatcatcher -2
Ruby-crowned kinglet -2
Gray Catbird -1
Blue-winged warbler -2
Kentucky warbler - 2 (Very nice looks)
Hooded warbler -2
Cerulean warbler -1
Northern Parula -3
Magnolia Warbler - 1
Yellow warbler -3
Palm warbler - 1
Yellow-rumped warbler -2
Yellow-throated warbler -1
Black-throated green -2
Scarlet tanager -4
Rose-breasted grosbeak- 5
 
A total of 50 species, most of which were foumd at the pullout at the Millenium 
Trailhead, the pullout for the cemetary trail, the courtesy dock area for the 
cabins, the boat dock area and a few at the park entrance tower.
 
As always it was good to see the birds, but even better seeing old friends and 
making new ones at the spring meeting.
 
The fall meeting will be here in Clarksville. Details to be in the upcoming 
Migrant and in a future tn-birds posting.
 
Hope to see you there!
