The Vermilion Flycatcher was still at Oneal Lake today! Three of us from Clarksville (Steve and Debbie Hamilton, Barbara Wilbur) arrived at Hatchie Wildlife Refuge a few minutes before 11:00 a.m. and the Vermilion was conveniently sitting in a small tree almost directly across from the headquarters building near the pavilions. He flew twice to finally land for several minutes on one of the pavilions with the light so perfect on him that he glowed red. After observing him for a few minutes, he appeared to fly off across the road and to the left of the headquarters building NEVER to be seen again (even though we stayed and looked all around the lake until 2 p.m.).

Three of us from Clarksville (Steve and Debbie Hamilton, Barbara Wilbur) arrived at Hatchie a few minutes before 11:00 a.m. and the Vermilion was conveniently sitting in a small tree a across from but a little beyond the headquarters building. Shortly after being sighted it flew to the peak of the smallest/fartherest pavilion; then it flew down and perched on a crossbar beneath the pavilion roof. From there it flew back to a tree almost directly across from the headquarters building. After providing us with great views at that location it appeared to fly off across the road and to the left of the headquarters building NEVER to be seen again (even though we stayed and looked all around the lake until 2 p.m.).
