|
| On 15 December 2011, Black-crowned Night-Heron was recorded for the second time on the Clay County CBC, which has been operational for 13 years; the adult depicted above was photographed 26 August 2007 in Celina at the very same site where another was found during the 13th Clay County CBC; photo T. M. Campbell. |
The Clay County Christmas Bird Count (CBC) was initiated 22 December 1999, during the 100th CBC season, and continued for fourteen seasons.
About 109 species were recorded on this CBC during its brief existence, offering a useful "window" on the avifauna of this site. Results for such species as Horned Grebe and Common Loon are especially helpful in monitoring the wintering populations of these species.
Some sites of interest lying within the Clay County CBC circle include Dale Hollow Dam and a large portion of Dale Hollow Lake east of the dam, Standing Stone State Park and Forest in Overton County, and Donaldson Park in Celina. Dale Hollow Lake has been designated an Important Bird Area in Tennessee by TWRA, mainly because of the fairly undeveloped nature of its considerable lakeshore, which hosts a small population of breeding Bald Eagles.
