Radnor Lake State Natural Area
Davidson Co., TN
2014 Apr. 10

My early morning walk this Thursday at Radnor Lake from the west parking
lot to Long Bridge and back proved to be less birdy than yesterday, with
only about 3/4ths the number of species found and no other birders seen.
Nevertheless, I was pleased to find a HORNED GREBE coming into breeding
plumage on the west end of the lake although the REDHEAD from yesterday
was missing. At Long Bridge also in the MIA category was the WINTER WREN
that I saw yesterday, but instead, I got extended good looks at eye
level of a slightly early OVENBIRD. On the way back to the west parking
lot I stopped to try to visually find a singing NORTHERN PARULA near the top of a very tall tree (no luck). While searching for it, another
bird flew into that area and turn out to be my first of the year GREAT
CRESTED FLYCATCHER. Only 5 species of warblers this morning, the above
two plus 1 BLACK-AND-WHITE, 3 YELLOW-THROATED WARBLERs, and a plethora
of YELLOW-RUMPEDs.
