    NTOS Field Trip to Bells Bend Park - October 18, 2014 at 7:30 AM
    4187 Old Hickory Blvd, Nashville, TN 37218
 
     It's not too early to remind everyone about this Saturday's NTOS field 
trip to Bells Bend Park in Nashville, TN. Our meeting time and location is 7:30 
AM in the Outdoor Center parking lot (4187 Old Hickory Blvd, Nashville, TN 
37218), and birders of all ages and skill levels are welcomed to attend.
     Bells Bend is an outstanding park for sparrows. Their list includes: Song, 
Swamp, Savannah, Lincoln's, White-crowned, White-throated, Field, and Vesper 
Sparrows, and more. We will likely encounter a few of these, plus other 
songbirds in the woods lining the fields. There's also a possibility of finding 
Marsh or Sedge Wrens in the fields. 
     This outing will likely only last the morning, but feel free to bring 
snacks and drinks if you wish. Hiking boots are recommended since the grass 
often gets fairly wet with dew. For further information about Bells Bend click 
here. Directions from Nashville can be found here. 
 
     If the weather doesn't look promising, a cancellation post will be sent 
via the TN-bird listserv on Friday evening.

***Get it on your calendars! The next NTOS Field Trip will be at Wheeler NWR in 
Decatur, Alabama, on November 8th, 2014.
