Radnor Lake
State Natural Area
Nashville-Davidson
Co. TN2 May 2012
It was a
warm morning for this spring's fourth Radnor Lake Walk hosted by NTOS. The
excitement began in the parking lot where Phillip Casteel first heard then
located a BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER. The bird eventually landed on dead
branch at near eye level providing great views. Unfortunately the bird flew
before most of the participants arrived. Also seen from the parking lot were a
BALD EAGLE, a BARRED OWL and several BLACKPOLL and MAGNOLIA WARBLERS. Further
along the trail a NORTHERN PARULA and a YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER came down from
the tree tops to give most birders nice views.
