#yiv1481055817 p {margin:0;}This afternoon at ~2:30 EDT Dan Jacobson found a
McCown's Longspur in with a flock of American Pipits (40-50) at Camp Jordan in
East Ridge, TN. Camp Jordan can be reached from exit #1 off I-75 just before
the GA state line. Exit #1 will be US 41, go east to just before the 1st
traffic light, turn left at a sign for Camp Jordan. Go to the large arena and
turn left. There will be a large gravel parking lot and a large grassy field
on the left. . The bird was first found at the back of the gravel lot and was
seen numerous times in the grassy field, always with pipits. There are only a
few records for TN and this is the 1st record for Hamilton County. Kevin
Calhoon got several identifiable photos.
