Subject: [TN-Bird] 2018 Radnor Lake Spring Walk #1
A LARGE group of 35+ enthusiastic birders came out to see and hear some birds
at Radnor Lake in Nashville this morning. While there were stretches of quiet
early on, and the breeze picked up a bit at times, it was a great morning to be
out. Even at 11:30 am, as I was forcing myself to head to the car, the spillway
was about as active as I've ever seen it. Of the 64 species observed,
highlights were: 15 warbler species, many of which very cooperative and posed
for the group out in the open and down low; 4 species of Vireo; 4 male Scarlet
Tanagers; and an Osprey circling overhead the group on the dam.
It was a great TOS event and we appreciated everyone being there.
Great Birding!
