Shelby Park and Bottoms
Davidson Co.
Nashville, TN
2011 April 21
7:15-9:05am
partly cloudy, cool

I walked the path around hill at the Shelby Park dog walk area.
I had nice views of an adult male BALTIMORE ORIOLE as well as an
immature male ORCHARD ORIOLE in the same tree.  ORANGE-CROWNED and
PALM WARBLERs are still coming through Nashville in numbers, but the
number of warbler species was low today (just 6 between the park
and bottoms), and I found NO BLACKPOLLs.  A male INDIGO BUNTING
and a singing WOOD THRUSH added to the variety.

I walked the short loop around Shelby bottoms and found a solitary
SOLITARY SANDPIPER at the pond in phase I.  A pair of RED-SHOULDERED
HAWKs circled and a pair of COOPER'S HAWKs hushed the bird life
for a time.
