The Nashville CBC was held on Sunday, Dec. 15 and produced 82 species and
one count week species, American Wigeon at Radnor Lake. The day was cold
and cloudy, and the wind may have kept some birds down in open areas like
Bells Bend Park. A female Long-tailed Duck was found by the Hwy 70 group on
a small lake in Bellevue, and continues to constantly dive for food there
as of Dec.18. A Peregrine Falcon was a nice find on Sneed Rd. on the Warner
Park route, and an American Tree Sparrow was spotted by the Harpeth West
group off of Hwy 100. Other highlights included 172 Wild Turkeys, 3 Bald
Eagles, 1 Sandhill Crane, 4 Red-headed Woodpeckers, 27 Hermit Thrushes, 4
Palm Warblers, and 3 Purple Finches. Blackbirds were noticeably scarce.
Thank you so much to all who participated, to Susan Hollyday for a
delicious supper/compilation, and to Scott Block, my co-compiler. We
couldn't do this without everyone's help.
