Anyone wishing to come to the Amnicola Marsh,

These  are some details that help recognize where you are.

      From Cleveland come South on 75 to Hwy153. bear right onto 153.  Go to 
Amnicola Hwy, (The Chattanooga State College, Chickamauga Dam) exit.  The 
exits are changing daily due to construction,  so if  you are directed to 
exit before the bridge on a ramp, turn left onto Amnicola; if you are 
directed to go under the bridge and exit ( and I think that has been 
permanently closed), you would  loop around and turn right onto Amnicola Hwy. 
Note: the signs say construction speed limits are 45MPPH and they are 
strictly enforced with high fines. Once on Amnicola follow it to the Police 
Services Center, about 3 red lights, and watch for the Schlotzsky's Deli on 
the right. Be in the right lane and slow down.  The trun into the marsh 
parking is obscured by trees, but will be immediately on your right. Park  in 
the small gravel lot and walk in. The Marsh is on the left after you walk in 
for a short distance, walk to your left another short distance.  The 
industrial park behind the Marsh is also a good place to bird.  You may enter 
the park just before Schlotzsky's and just past where you enter the Marsh 
parking lot. There have been Upland Sandpiper, Bobolink, and other good grass 
loving birds in the industrial area for several years. There have been Great 
Egret in the Marsh as recently as last week.

Good Birding
