Radnor Lake State Natural Area Davidson Co. Nashville, TN 2009 October 1 7:05-9:40am clear and cool This Thursday morning I walked from the west parking lot to Long Bridge and back. There was plenty of warbler action, even better than yesterday. My first warbler was one of the drabest GOLDEN-WINGED's that I have seen. I finished the morning with 12 warbler species. TENNESSEE, MAGNOLIA, BLACK-THROATED GREEN, and AM. REDSTARTs were very plentiful. Four species of Vireos were seen including PHILADELPHIA and YELLOW-THROATED. ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK numbers were down from the past 2 days. A flock of 12 WILD TURKEYs was feeding just past bench 19. I found no migrating winter ducks or grebes but did NOT have the best vantage point to check all of the lake.
