Sevier Co.,

I hiked the Alum Cave Bluffs Trail on this gorgeously fair day today. The
expected birds were quite active-the Black-capped Chickadees and
Red-breasted Nuthatches coming in very close. Only nine species were seen,
but all very enjoyable.

Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus)  1     atop the Bluffs

Blue-headed Vireo (Vireo solitarius)  1     singing near the base of the
trail

American Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos)  1

Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus)  15

Red-breasted Nuthatch (Sitta canadensis)  6

Winter Wren (Troglodytes hiemalis)  3      singing   

Golden-crowned Kinglet (Regulus satrapa)  8  singing

Louisiana Waterthrush (Parkesia motacilla)  1  singing near the base of the
trail

Dark-eyed Junco (Junco hyemalis)  6       singing
