Yesterday I had my car fixed in Murfreesboro and I had some time to kill so I walked around down to Canonsburgh (a historical site). I saw a large sign that said "Greenway Trailhead" and I was curious so I walked down to that trail. I have never walked down there before. According to the info posted there, this trail and an adjoining trail, wind along the Stones River. I am wondering if anyone has birded this trail and if they found anything of significance there? I would be interested in birding it sometime if someone wanted to go with me. It's very close to my house and we could park in the Canonsburgh parking lot - now that I know where this trail is. There are even some picnic tables along the trail if anyone brought a lunch we could stop and eat there. I had heard others in the family talking about the walk along the river but I thought it was all developed right in the middle of Murfreesboro - more like a recreational type of feature - little more than a jogging trail in a city park. I was very pleased to see that (at least the part that I saw) there are trees shading over most of it and the river is also beautiful to look at as you walk along the trail. It gave me a serene feeling to be there. Kind of a sanctuary of green in the middle of the city.
