In case anyone is interested in seeing Scissor-tailed Flycatcher, the
eBird checklist below includes a summary of results for that species
from a recent trip undertaken by Ed LeGrand and me.

Dickcissels were quite prominent in this year of the Dickcissel in TN,
possibly a result of loss of habitat due to flooding along the
Mississippi River and drought in the southern great plains this year.
