partly cloudy, windy
For most of my walk this Friday morning at Radnor Lake it was
a rather typical fall day. The mix of birds was generally
similar to that of yesterday but the species count was down a
bit. Then, at the cedar tree after bench 12 but before
bench 13 and the deck, I got my highlight of the morning,
nice looks at a male BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER, a relatively
rare fall migrant in the Nashville area. BLACK-THROATED GREEN
WARBLERs were still the dominant warbler species today. I
finished the morning with 11 warbler species and only 2 vireo
species, no tanagers and no thrushes except for AM. ROBINs.
CANADA GEESE numbers seem to be increasing, making the morning
very noisy at times.
Birds of interest included:
Canada Goose 76
Cooper's Hawk 1
Chimney Swift 17
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker 2
E. Wood-Pewee 1
E. Phoebe 3
Philadelphia Vireo 1
