This morning our crew headed south for an early start on spring break. A stop
at an advertised address from TN-Birds, thank you John Henderson, produced
the "Bird of the Trip" which was a male PAINTED BUNTING!! This was a lifer
for us all. We later met up with a group led by Kevin Calhoun at Brainerd
Levee and saw highlights like: Green Heron, Greater Yellow Legs and Solitary
Sandpipers as well as a Sora. Kevin's group was said to have flushed as many
as four American Bitterns prior to our arrival. From there we headed to
Audubon Acres and saw the captive Golden Eagle. Not much else here, a couple
of Pine Warblers and Blue-gray Gnatcatchers stood out. Lastly, a visit to
Chickamauga Dam bought all the children another lifer when Carol spotted the
first of two Peregrine Falcons. First of the year Cliff Swallows were also
identified.
