9-29-07 Harpeth River Greenway Cumberland River Greenway Davidson Co. NTOS enjoyed a beautiful morning exploring two Nashville greenways that we haven't birded before as a group. The bird of the day was a male Cerulean Warbler at Harpeth River, but unfortunately only seen by one of us, NTOS president Amy Potter. There was also a most confiding Green Heron ON the paved path at Harpeth River, and hordes of Field Sparrows. Both spots were promising for future birding trips. pied-billed grebe 3 great blue heron 3 green heron 1 Canada goose 60+ mallard black vulture turkey vulture red-tailed hawk 1 Cooper's hawk ? killdeer 4 rock pigeon mourning dove belted kingfisher 2 red-bellied woodpecker downy northern flicker phoebe 2 northern rough-winged swallow 4 blue jay crow chickadee titmouse white-breasted nuthatch Carolina wren bluebird Swainson's Thrush 1 thrush sp. 1 robin gray catbird 1 mockingbird 4 brown thrasher 1 cedar waxwing 6 starling Tennessee warbler 1 yellow warbler 1 magnolia 3 cerulean 1 redstart 2 common yellowthroat 2 cardinal rose-breasted grosbeak 4 - one flashing its rose underwing coverts at us in flight indigo bunting 6 towhee field sparrow 30+ swamp sparrow 2 grackle goldfinch Jan Shaw Nashville, TN ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to SIGN YOUR MESSAGE with first and last name, CITY (TOWN) and state abbreviation.
