Correction:  Double-crested Cormorants 10, Common Coot 75 (25 on island
across from dam and ~50 at Musick's Campground).  I typed 75 cormorants and
that is not correct.

> While birding near the mouth of Josiah Creek, South Holston Lake, Sullivan
Co., today (10/19) I had the first COMMON LOON of the winter.
> At PowerLine Farm on Pemberton Rd. in Holston Valley, Sullivan Co., I had
the first WHITE-CROWNED SPARROWS 3 of the fall.   One was singing.
>
> Also at PowerLine Farm was a MERLIN, our second record this fall.  Don
Holt had one in September at Musick's Campground.
>
> Other notable birds for today included an immature Bald Eagle also at the
mouth of Josiah Creek,  three Herring Gulls (2 adults, 1 immature) near
South Holston Dam,  Double-crested Cormorants 75 (25 on island across from
dam and ~50 at Musick's Campground and Ring-billed Gull (2) on the island
across from the dam.

Weir Dam just downstream from South Holston Dam on the river.  These are the
first I have had here this fall.
