Kevin Breault and TN-Birders,

Red-breasted Nuthatch: They have been moving south since mid-June
presumably because of the poor cone crop in central Canada. Almost
all Red-breasted Nuthatches will depart Ontario's boreal forest by
late fall and left the province -- message posted to Ohio-Birds by
Ron Pittaway, Ontario Field Ornithologists, Minden, Ontario
15 September 2007.

Let's go birding......
