I thank all that responded to my first request for heronry information.
I am sending this request again in hopes that if you missed it or didn't
have a chance to respond, that you will now. Even though you might
think a site has been reported, and it may not have been, different
observers at different times can see different things, therefore
providing updates. The request follows:
Heronries that regularly support 25+ breeding pairs of wading birds
(e.g., bitterns, herons, egrets) or 100+ individuals feeding or in
migration could qualify as an Important Bird Area (IBA). I would
appreciate knowing of any site that you are aware in Tennessee that you
think meets this criteria or is close. Even though a site might not
meet the criteria now, it could in future years and its presence should
be know so that is can be monitored and protected.
