Yesterday, as part of the Nashville area spring count, I covered (with a few others at each place) Radnor Lake from 7:00 AM-12:30 PM and Old Hickory Lake from 1:15 PM-5:00 PM. Radnor was fun; there were a LOT of warblers. At times, the number of singing individuals was so great that it was very difficult to tease out specific songs from the cacophony. I'll post numbers later, but here are the highlights out of 102 species on the day: Radnor L. 27 spp. of warbler including a MOURNING and 4 CERULEANS (good numbers, too) BLACK DUCK!! 5 PINE SISKINS all of the regular vireos notably absent - Blue-winged Warbler, American Redstart and Gray-cheeked Thrush Old Hickory Lake (both Davidson and Sumner) 8 COMMON LOONS (including 5 breeding plumage) adult breeding BONAPARTE'S GULL (very late) ratty first cycle HERRING GULL (very late) 50+ BOBOLINKS (field at end of Swinging Bridge Road) WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW (same field) Chris Sloan Nashville, TN http://www.chrissloanphotography.com
