TN-birders,
Thanks to a tip from Kelly Roy while we were away last week, we found out about
a Swallow-tailed Kite reported at the Oliver Springs airport a few days ago.
Dollyann and I went over there about 10:30 this morning and Dollyann spotted it
soaring over the open fields at the very south end of the property. This was
from the gravel entrance road at the south end of the airport property. When we
were there the gate was open. Access is from Airport Road. If the gate is
closed, you could park on the entrance road and walk along airport road to see
into the airport property and scan the sky. There is another road on the east
side of the airport property and the airport can be seen scanned from a few
places along there as well.
Great birding,
Ron Hoff & Dollyann Myers
Clinton, TN
