The Nashville CBC was held on Dec. 15 and totaled 85 species, a little
higher than usual. There was also one count week species, Barred Owl at
Radnor Lake, and 2 possible heard only Sedge Wrens on count day at Warner
Parks.
The day was mild and mostly cloudy, but with some rain and strong winds.
Highlights included 1 Peregrine Falcon in West Meade, 2 Whooping Cranes in
Bells Bend, 1 Wilson's Snipe at Poplar Creek, 2 American Woodcock at Bells
Bend, 1 Bonaparte's Gull at Radnor Lake, 11 Eastern Screech-Owls (7 at
Warner Parks), 4 Red-headed Woodpeckers, 1 Horned Lark and 1 American Pipit at
Bells Bend, 8 Red-breasted Nuthatches, 12 Rusty Blackbirds at Bells Bend,
6 Purple Finches, and 23 Pine Siskins. The cranes were on private
property. The colored leg bands identify them as birds #1-03 and #8-05 by the
International Crane Foundation. These are the same individuals that were
observed in the same general area during the 2007 and 2008 Nashville CBCs.
Thank you so much to all who participated, and to Susan Hollyday for once
again
hosting a delicious compilation dinner. And thank you to Scott Block for
compiling the numbers.
