Sabin and Nashville birders:

A definite trend indeed! About 10 years ago I saw a
live Ovenbird in the very same spot, sometime during
fall migration, and a dead one on the steps of the L&C
Tower Annex around the corner the following spring. 
I wonder if a certain habitat or feature existed there
in antiquity that keeps them coming back...

On another note, today I saw an adult Sharp-shinned
hawk devouring a Mourning Dove at Long Hunter State
Park (eastern Davidson County on Percy Priest Lake).
