My parents address is 313 Diamond Drive, McKenzie, TN 38201. This doesn't
seem to work well on Mapquest, etc. This will put you on Diamond Drive, but
at the wrong house.
The following link should show Diamond Drive:
http://maps.yahoo.com/;_ylc=X3oDMTExNmIycG51BF9TAzI3MTYxNDkEc2VjA2ZwLWJ1dHRvbgRzbGsDbGluaw--#mvt=m&lat=36.134284&lon=-88.501739&zoom=16&q1=313%20diamond%20drive%2038201
To get to Diamond Drive, take Paris Ave (west) off of Hwy 79. This is about
a mile south of the Hwy 79/22 junction. When you get on Paris Ave, you will
go around a curve, then down a long hill. At the bottom of the hill, Diamond
Drive will come in at the right. Take this, and follow this road. You will
pass a street coming in from the right (which completes the diamond), and
continue past a road going up the hill to the left. My parents live at the
northeast corner of the diamond, on the outside of the diamond. They have a
mailbox in the yard that says 313 on it. It is a red brick house, with a car
in the carport under a tan cover.
They have a short driveway, so parking should be off to the side of the
driveway, or by the road. At the northwest corner of their backyard, there
is a storage shed, which borders an open grass field behind their house. I
would suggest going out to this field, and looking back toward the house.
Where the Dove was feeding was under the feeder right off the back patio. It
was later sitting in the largest oak tree behind their house, you can see
this spot better as you walk out to the storage building. Their backyard is
very small, so I would minimize my movements as much as possible to prevent
spooking the birds.
If anyone has any questions, feel free to call my cell (731 676-0889); I
will be checking on the bird by 06:45 in the morning. If the bird shows I
will run home and put out a quick post.
We put out a bunch of food this afternoon, hopefully the dove will stay to
partake of it.
Good Birding!!
