Radnor Lake State Natural Area Davidson Co., TN Tuesday, 2014 September 16 7-9:30am mostly heavy clouds with a tiny bit of sunshine I stopped by Radnor Lake this Tuesday morning and immediately found that Jan Shaw also had decided that birding on an overcast day was better than staying at home. We birded the dam area where there was a nice mixed warbler flock, the best being a male WILSON'S plus BAY-BREASTED, and BLACKBURNIAN WARBLERs . I found a second mixed flock just before Long Bridge. At first, there were just 2 or 3 warblers around. However, a titmouse began fussing at me, complaining for a while by itself. Eventually, the chickadees and wrens joined in, causing such a commotion that their complaints attracted many more warblers, a couple vireos, and a catbird. In the flock were AMERICAN REDSTARTs, OVENBIRD, BLUE-WINGED and GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLERs, KENTUCKY, MAGNOLIA, BLACK-AND-WHITE, and TENNESSEE WARBLERs. It has been a couple years since I've had that much of a fuss made over me! All in all, I found 47 species with 14 species of warblers, so a very nice morning. Birds of particular interest included Yellow-throated Vireo 1 Ovenbird 1 Blue-winged Warbler 2 Golden-winged Warbler 1 Black-and-White Warbler 1 Tennessee Warbler 2 American Redstart 9 N. Parula 1 Magnolia Warbler 11 Bay-breasted Warbler 2 Blackburnian Warbler 4 Chestnut-sided Warbler 1 Black-throated Green Warbler 4 Canada Warbler 3 Wilson's Warbler 1 male Summer Tanager, male Frank Fekel Bellevue, TN =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to SIGN YOUR MESSAGE with first and last name, CITY (TOWN) and state abbreviation.
