Hi All,
Sandy's diligent online research paid off when she discovered a brochure for the North Alabama Birding Trail. Several of the birding sites listed were near the Wilson Dam along the Tennessee River not too far away.
The area just below the dam was rich in bird life including dozens of cormorants, a great blue heron rookery with 30-40 birds on nests and a huge flock of white pelicans.
We ate our picnic lunch overlooking the dam and river then hiked a total of 4 miles along lovely wooded trails.
It was a beautiful day.
Love
Sandy & Carl

More local color; a cemetery for hunting dogs- no we didn't stop!
