Here are the preliminary results of the Chattanooga CBC held on December 17. I have not gotten all of the data from all of the parties yet, but have talked to most of them. We had a great count with 101 species so far (our goal is always 100). I want to thank everyone who participated!! Highlights included: - Immature male Baltimore Oriole- National Cemetary - (Nashville CBC had one also). I believe this is the first record since the count was started on 1953. - American Bittern - Standifer Gap Marsh - I believe this is only the second record for the count (first in 1983) - Sedge Wren - Brainerd Levee - Marsh Wren - Standifer Gap Marsh - Virginai Rail - Standifer Gap Marsh The male Broad-tailed Hummingbird at Dan William's place on Signal Mountain would have been in the count circle, but was not seen after December 12.
