Florence Road and 840

Following good directions from Jon Mann, of the Nashville Chapter of the TOS, 
 a single Scissor-tailed Flycatcher was located this afternoon. The bird was 
on a power line along Florence Road just after crossing over HWY 840 in 
Murfreesboro. The flycatcher's swooping dive on a nearby Starling ended with a 
momentary hover with that tremendous forked tail flared and a pink flush under 
the 
wing exposed.
