Though we didn't see a Loggerhead Shrike as hoped, yesterday's walk at
Eastbridge Business Park in Knoxville yielded an impressive 51 species!
Highlights include a family of turkeys walking down a service road, decent
looks at a shy Grasshopper Sparrow, a lifer Yellow-breasted Chat for one
birder, lots of Prairie Warblers singing up and down Eastbridge Blvd, and every
species of local swallow. All that and I was miraculously tick-free when I got
home!
Thank you to everyone who came along. It was fun.
Here's my checklist from the hike (which includes a few
species not seen by the others):
