Shelby Park and Bottoms Nashville, Davidson Co., TN 2012 Sep. 3 7:30-10:15 am Cloudy and light rain at times After Terry Witt's excellent finds at Shelby Park & Bottoms, I decided to give it a try this Labor Day Monday morning. I first birded Mission Hill and ran into Terry and Chad. We found a couple small flocks of warblers before finding an OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER on a very tall snag on the dog park side toward the end of the trail away from the main parking lot and paved walkway that leads to the dog park. Also found on the hill were 2 BALTIMORE ORIOLEs and an E. SCREECH OWL. The bottoms Phase I produced additional warblers, mostly MAGNOLIAs but also GOLDEN-WINGED, WILSON'S, and CANADA. We finished with 11 warbler species. Also seen were SWAINSON'S THRUSH and GRAY CATBIRD, rounding out a very nice morning.
