Snow Bunting Peninsula
Old Hickory Dam area
Davidson Co., TN
2012 April 24, Wednesday
10-11:05 am
rainy and windy

When I left Snow Bunting Peninsula the 19 American Avocets,
found this morning by Phillip Casteel, were still in the area.
For a time the were on the sand beach of the park next to the
peninsula but then the flew over to the peninsula. Several vehicles
came through during the last 30 minutes that I was there and the
flock would fly about but return to the peninsula. A most impressive
flock. Several photographers were snapping plenty of photos and even
some non-birders stopped to ask what the birds were.
