Van Harris and others: Don't know the exact first date. The Eurasian Collared-Dove was first accepted as a Tennessee record species from Hamilton County, October-November 1994, by the Tennessee Bird Records Committee. Three to five collared-doves were reported by Clyde Bloom and many other birders during late 1994 into 1995. Let's go birding......
