Warren County, Tennessee, Christmas Bird Count Results from the 1980–1981 Season through the Present
This Great Horned Owl was photographed in northeastern Warren County, Tennessee, during the CBC conducted in that county during the 2008-2009 CBC season; photo Carol D. Williams (3 January 2009). |
During its history this CBC has accumulated a list of about 115 species, adding considerably to knowledge regarding the winter birdlife of Warren County.
Results for the Warren County (McMinnville) CBCs for the 1980–1981, 1988–1989, and 1989–1990 CBC seasons were published only in American Birds; later results were published in The Migrant, as well as in American Birds. Sometimes the total species count or the total of individuals for a species is not the same in these two publications; in those cases, the total published in American Birds is used.

* The species total (73) for the 2014-2015 (115th) CBC in Warren County, TN, is presented as a different total (75) in the summary of CBCs published in The Migrant (Hoff 2015); the total listed in that publication occurs because two count week species (Snow Goose and Sandhill Crane) are listed as being recorded on count day, which was not the case; those species are listed as count week species only at the Audubon CBC website and are so listed above.
