May 23, 2009 After seeing Rick Knight's post of birds observed in western Washington County earlier today, I made a brief trip to Precision Boulevard late this afternoon and found the following: White-rumped Sandpiper (3, still present at 5:30) Loggerhead Shrike (1, carrying nesting material to a sapling alongside the driveway that leads up the hill to Nakatetsu Machining Technologies; I drove up the driveway to get a closer look; without leaving the car, I looked into the tree with binos and found the nest, which appeared to be in an advanced stage of construction) Warbling Vireo (1, singing in a mature tree at "Bush Hog Pond") Don Miller Greeneville, Greene Co., TN =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to SIGN YOUR MESSAGE with first and last name, CITY (TOWN) and state abbreviation.
