The annual spring meeting of Tennessee Ornithological Society held in
Bristol VA over the weekend was a great success! I'd like to thank Bill
Grigsby
and the Bristol Bird Club, for hosting and other upper east Tennessee birders,
members of Lee Herndon chapter etc., for helping out with field trips.
The weather Saturday was mixed and misty but everyone was treated to good
birds. At the banquette Dr. Richard Peak ended his birding-around-the-world
slide presentation with some interesting bird lore about his favorite local
birding hot spot, Mount Rodgers. And later Ruth Luckadoo was moved to declare
that the dinner was "...the best meal I have ever had at a state TOS meeting!"
For Sunday field trips the weather turned crystal clear. The Roan Mountain
trip I was on was well attended and most of our target birds were seen and/or
heard. The highlights for me were Pine Siskind building a nest and Brown
Creeper observed with nesting material, both good records for Tennessee birds.
