While in Nashville early this week, I made a couple of observations that
might be of interest to Davidson County birders, so I'm sending them along--
Indigo Bunting (on October 24, below the James Knox Polk and Sarah
Childress Polk gravesite adjacent to the state capitol; this is one day
later than I've observed this species in Greene County, and I suspect
that it might be a fairly late date for Davidson County; in any case, it
was interesting to find a fall Indigo Bunting in a thoroughly urban
habitat; practically all the INBU I find in fall are in weedy fields,
overgrown fencerows, or brush piles in rural areas);
Common Yellowthroat (on October 25, below the capitol in a weedy patch
no more than twenty feet from the railroad track near the intersection
of 10th Avenue North and Nelson Merry Street; I wasn't surprised to find
Song Sparrows, White-throated Sparrows, and Dark-eyed Juncos in this
spot, but I was a little startled to find a Common Yellowthroat).
