In conjunction with the North American Migration Count, we will be counting birds at Radnor Lake, one of Nashville's best spots during migration. There should be plenty of warblers, vireos, tanagers, grosbeaks, and other migrants to keep us busy for the morning. Meet at the WEST parking lot on Otter Creek Rd. at 7:00 and we'll bird the Lake Trail. This will just last the morning. If you are unable to join us, but you are able to get in a little birding on your own somewhere, you are definitely encouraged to participate in the North American Migration Count and send in your data to Ron Hoff at _aves7000@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (mailto:aves7000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) or 282 Hackworth Lane, Clinton, TN 37716. In addition to the actual species tallied, every count needs to have what's called the effort data. This includes hours and miles by car, foot, owling (kept separately), and any other method. Feeder watchers and hours at feeders are also needed, but are considered a separate category and need to be kept separate from the field data. The other information needed is the county, weather data, times of the count (as 0600-1900), and the names of all the participants.
