The first Tennessee record of the Eurasian Collared-Dove was October 24, 1994, in Hamilton County. In the intervening 14 years, the species has been found across the state. In reviewing in Tennessee Birding the 254 archived posts from February 2002 - December 2008, that mentioned the species, it was found in 31 out of the 95 Tennessee counties. Listed are the counties that the species was not mentioned. It would be appreciated if you would send me a note if you have observed the species in one of the counties listed. I am not asking for dates and numbers, only if you saw it in that county. I can be contacted at mlbierly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Your assistance is appreciated.
