Today is the Nashville Area Fall Bird Count, and I covered Radnor Lake
(Davidson Co.) along with Camille Monohan, Jim Arnett, and Chris Agee. The
full list is below.
It was a fairly slow morning but we did encounter a couple of decent flocks.
Highlights:
Northern Harrier - a surprise flyover immature
15 warbler spp. including 2 Wilson's and a Golden-wing
1 Philadelphia Vireo
Red-headed Woodpecker (seen by Jim and Chris before they joined us)
45 Double-crested Cormorants in a single tight flock (eventually flew off)
