Birders,
Today I drove from Chattanooga to Nashville on I-24 between 9A and 11A CST, 
birding along the way (using a recording device).
It all started with an adult Bald Eagle flying over the Tennessee River at the 
base of Lookout Mountain and ended with 39 Black Vultures consuming a deer at 
the edge of Percy Warner Park near my home.
