clear, cool

My first morning Wednesday Walk of the season produced a nice mix of
birds.  The COMMON LOON that was dropped off yesterday was still on the
lake, slowly wandering about the west end.  An OSPREY briefly flew
low over the east end of the lake.  Species that essentially tied for 
the highest number of birds (60+)were YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER and AMERICAN
COOT.  There were plenty of swifts and swallows coursing over the
lake and at least 7 PIED-BILLED GREBEs migrating through as well.
I finally saw my first spring singing BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER
and also a singing YELLOW-THROATED VIREO, both along Otter Creek Road.

Driving by Walter S. Davis marsh in Nashville as I approached work
another OSPREY briefly circled the marsh before heading back to
Cumberland River territory.
