 TN birders,

Sometimes it seems nothing good turns up locally, but today was the exception.  
Although I had been taking my am walk through Tinsley Park and along the 
Cleveland Greenway, I took a part I usually don't walk this am, since Becky and 
our 1 year old granddaughter was with us in the stroller.  Even with the front 
door of Home Depot on the greenway, I heard the call of a king rail three times 
in succession.  There is a nice cattail marsh here, but before, all it produced 
was red-winged blackbirds and common yellowthroats.  Other birds of note:

eastern kingbird-3
scarlet tanager-2f
louisiana waterthrush-hrd
rose-breasted grosbeak-hrd
