Today Jeff Cowell and I discovered a Mute Swan while birding the Bells Bend
area of N Davidson County. The bird was with a flock of about 50 Canada Geese,
and I would bet is a wild bird. It was seen on Cleeces Ferry Road which is a
short spur west of Old Hickory Boulevard heading toward the Cumberland River
about 3 miles north of the river. There are a number of large ponds or lakes
west of Old Hickory Boulevard and it was originally feeding in a field with the
geese, and then flew into one of the ponds.
The only other bird of significance today was a Loggerhead Shrike which was
perched on the fence east of Tn840 beteween I-24 and US 41.
