At the same location, my husband Travis and I spotted 3 Scissor-tails
on our way back from Murfreesboro Sunday evening (9/13). The light
wasn't great and the traffic was a little too heavy to turn around and
pull over, so I can't say what sex they were or whether one or more
were juveniles. But the three of them were hanging out on a power
line right next to the school.
