Female Chestnut-collared Longspur at Ensley Bottoms, Shelby Co. TN
Mike Todd found TN's first Chestnut-collared in Lake Co, a couple of years back just in time for the Reelfoot CBC. I found this female feeding along side a gravel road in Ensley Bottoms in TN, just like I found 3 along side a road years ago in Tunica Co, MS. As you can tell, I was able to ease my truck up to within 20 feet of this bird.
