May 8-9, 2010
Memphis, Shelby Co.
Key Corner, Lauderdale Co. TN
 
Before I made my run to Reelfoot Saturday, I stopped by to the check  
Western Kingbird haunts around Memphis. I finally ran up on a traveling Western 
 
Kingbird feeding but continually moving east along the causeway to 
President's  Island. I found no other birds until an unexpected female  
Scissor-tail 
appeared along Key Corner Road near Scott's Bluff.
 
Magically, over night all these slots were filled, as today I found  and 
photographed Western Kingbirds at 4 locations; President's Island,  southwest 
Memphis warehouse area, Frayser and Levee Road.  
Good Birding  !!!
