No doubt the highlight of today's walk at Radnor Lake sponsored by the
Nashville Chapter of TOS was one very cooperative CERULEAN WARBLER.
Repeatedly heard along the trail between the Lake Trail overlook and the
Long Bridge, the bird flitted at mid level for a long period of time such
that we all were able to see him quite well. At one point the bird sat on a
branch with a large insect in his bill as if to display his prize. Other
warblers of note were a singing MAGNOLIA WARBLER seen at the Spillway and a
YELLOW WARBLER at the same location. A COMMON YELLOWTHROAT was also seen
nearby. In addition, a few lucky participants got a look at the MOURNING
WARBLER that had been reported at the Long Bridge.
Next week will be the last of this Spring's regularly scheduled NTOS walks
at Radnor Lake.
