Kyker Bottoms
Saturday, November 12, 2011, 7:30 or 8:15 AM
Leader: Chuck Nicholson
Kyker Bottoms will partially closed on November 15, so this will be our last
chance to bird large segments of this site for a few months. KTOS has supported
Evan Searfrost's Eagle Scout project to build an additional observation tower
at Kyker Bottoms so it will be a chance to see this new structure.
Sparrows and rails will be some of the targets of this trip, and in order to
see some of them, we will be walking in potentially wet fields, where lots of
seeds might stick to us. Wear old shoes and maybe clothes you can throw away
afterwards! You don't have to walk through the fields, but can stay to the
sides, watching for any birds the rest of us chase into view. For additional
information and directions see:
http://www.tnbirds.org/birdfinding/KykerBottoms.htm
Meet at the Ag School parking lot at 7:30 AM to carpool or at the parking lot
by the "old" observation platform at 8:15 AM. Bring water and a snack if you
want one.
