"Besides being an omen of death, a calling whip-poor-will could bring luck if you wished on the first one of the spring—and if you had backache, turning somersaults in time with the whip’s call would cure you."

Trebek: Butterflies, bull bats and barred owls
First up, a tour of the Native Plant & Butterfly Garden at Cedars of Lebanon State Park curated by Tennessee Extension Master Gardener Linda Robertson. Everyone is invited. To participate meet at the Dixon L. Merritt Nature Center by 6:30 p.m. The butterfly garden is in full bloom and absolutely gorgeous so don’t miss this opportunity!
Next, we venture off into the glade of southern Wilson County in search of nightjars and owls. To join us on the birding expedition, be at the Nature Center by 7:30 p.m. We will make our way into the Cedars of Lebanon State Forest a few miles west of the park to our own little hotspot for owls and nightjars.
Expect to hear Great Horned Owl, Barred Owl, Eastern Screech Owl, Chuck-will’s Widow, Eastern Whippoorwill, and Common Nighthawk. If we’re lucky, we might catch sight of one or two of these birds.
