Radnor Lake State Natural Area
Nashville-Davidson Co. TN25 April 2012
On a windy morning nearly 30 birders were present for the third of six
Radnor Lake Walks hosted by NTOS. The wind made viewing birds difficult but
there were several people with excellent hearing which aided in locating many
of the birds. A NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH was clearly heard at the spillway which was in the same
location as reported by Jan Shaw on Sunday. Also at the spillway, some birders
were able to see an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER. A little further along the trail
all were able to see a CHESTNUT-SIDED WARBLER.
