We're in Arkansas!

It has been a long day on the road! Ben and I drove for 13 hours (including stops) and made it to Forrest City, Arkansas! The weather has been beautiful today and the fall colors are gorgeous although we were driving out of the peak colors.

We stopped in Tennessee to stretch and get some fresh air and of course, get some new state birds! We walked around the Old Hickory Dam, where there were many Pied-billed Grebes, Carolina Wrens, Northern Mockingbirds, Eastern Bluebirds and even an Eastern Phoebe singing! We tallied 25 species of birds and Ben caught a Pickerel Frog and a Chorus Frog!
