a summary of the 2000 TOS Fall Meeting
2001 TOS Spring Meeting
The Nashville chapter of TOS will host the 2001 Spring
Meeting May 4-6 at Paris
Landing State Park. The park is located on US Highway 79, Henry
County, on the western shore of Kentucky Lake, between Paris and Dover.
Reservations can be made by calling 1-800-250-8614, and please state
that you are with TOS.
We are pleased to have Troy Ettel as our speaker at
Saturday night's banquet. He has just recently been selected as TWRA's
new State Ornithologist, effective last December 1. His duties will
include administration of the statewide nongame bird program. He received
his MS in Wildlife Biology from the University of Tennessee in 1997.
Since then, he has been State Zoologist with The Nature Conservancy
in Texas, with a focus on birds. Please come and meet our new State
Ornithologist, and hear his ideas on helping our birds. Gary Myers,
Director of TWRA, will also give a short presentation.
Field trips will include Land Between the Lakes, Britton
Ford, the Big Sandy Unit of the TNWR (Pace Point area), Keel Spring
Nature Trail (Cerulean Warblers!), Cross Creeks NWR, and hopefully a
Henslow's Sparrow spot near Dover. More information on field trips will
be posted soon!

their findings by e-mail to a designated person on Sunday, who will
compile the data and get it out on TN-BIRD as soon as possible.
