Radnor Lake State Natural Area
Davidson Co.
Nashville, TN
Monday 2010 September 13
7:20-9:20 am
clear and cool
Monday morning was so cool and clear that I had to visit Radnor
Lake again. As Chris Sloan reported, Saturday's excursion to
Radnor proved to be most impressive (between us we had a 14th
warbler species that he forgot to mention, a NASHVILLE WARBLER.
Although activity had slowed down today, there were still birds
of note. The dam area was by far the most active, and while there
I picked up two new TN birds for the year. First, a lovely male
GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER was seen at eye level as he ate breakfast.
Of course I did NOT have my camera with me. I also got my
first WARBLING VIREO for the year. Of the 6 AM REDSTARTs seen,
2 were adult males. A flock of 55 CHIMNEY SWIFTs twittered as
they coursed over the lake.
Birds of interest included:
Wood Duck 40+
Chimney Swift 55
Ruby-throated Hummingbird 2
Acadian Flycatcher 1
White-eyed Vireo 3 -- one singing
Warbling Vire 1
Swainson's Thrush 1
Golden-winged Warbler 2
Chestnut-sided Warbler 2 - one with chestnut sides, one without
Magnolia Warbler 6
Black-and-white Warbler 1
American Redstart 6 -- 2 adult males
