This Saturday, April 19, Mary Zimmerman will be leading the NTOS to Long Hunter
State Park in Rutherford county. The group will be looking for spring migrants
such as vireos, warblers, tanagers, orioles, and more, and also waterfowl and
swallows on the park's Couchville Lake. We will be meeting in the parking lot
beside the trail at Couchville Lake (located within the state park) at 7:00
A.M. The outing will only last the morning. Please bring bug spray, as the
park can have numbers of mosquitos in some areas. For more information about
Long Hunter State Park (including latitude/longitude for the meeting place),
click here. Detailed directions to the parking lot beside Couchville Lake are
below.
Directions to the parking lot beside Couchville Lake:
From I-24 East (toward Chattanooga) take exit 62 for Old Hickory Blvd/TN-171.
Turn left onto Old Hickory Blvd/TN-171. Continue for about 6 1/2 miles (this
road eventually takes the name Hobson Pike). The park entrance will be on your
right. After entering the park, make the first turn on your left. This will
lead you to the parking lot beside the lake.
Everyone, beginners and experts alike, is invited to join us! If you have any
questions, feel free to email me.
***Get it on your calendars! The next field trip will be to Bark Camp Barrens
WMA in Manchester, TN, on May 17 at 7:45 A.M.
