Hello from the Charlotte Park section of West Nashville about four blocks
east of the Cumberland River's old Cleece's Ferry crossing to Bell's Bend in
Davidson County.
Yesterday, at 4:29 PM, a BEE-YOO-TI-FUL white crowned sparrow appeared on my
deck and began feeding gregariously as if it was starved to the core. The
bird was quite "testy" and not in the mood for interference from the juncos,
cardinals, field sparrows, white-throats & mourning doves also feeding there at
the time. It fed for several minutes, then flew over to get several sips of
water and took off toward the Cumberland River and Bell's Bend. Nice thrill
for
this old birder, as I rarely see white-crowneds.
Cheers & prayers,
Dee Thompson
