Shelby Bottoms Greenway, Phase 3 Nashville, Davidson Co., TN 2012 May 19 7:30-10 am Saturday morning ten birders began a search for Connecticut, Mourning, and Swainson's Warblers at Shelby Bottoms Greenway, Phase 3 section. The Swainson's Warbler was very cooperative. We first heard and then got excellent looks at the Swainson's that has been announcing its territory since late April. It is presumably the same bird that was found in the same place last year. Connecticut and Mourning Warblers were not as cooperative, so unfortunately we did not hear or see any, although a late arriving Phillip Casteel reported hearing a Connecticut Warbler in Phase 1 earlier in the morning. As expected we found numerous Yellow-breasted Chats and Common Yellowthroats, as well as several Prairie Warblers and Indigo Buntings. Also seen or heard were Yellow-billed Cuckoo and Gray-cheeked Thrush.
