My wife and I were driving to Franklin for some shopping at Cool Springs this 
afternoon on Tn 840 and hadn't even left Murfreesboro when she said "what was 
that white-breasted bird with the long tail on the fence?".  After I backed 
up on the shoulder to the fence, an adult male Scissor-tailed Flycatcher was 
still present, long tail and all!  This was only a mile or so from the nest 
site 
last summer on Florence Road at I-24.  The bird was on the north side of the 
road, perched on the chain-link fence beside the large quarry filled with 
water between US 41 and I-24.
