Greene Co., TN

I grabbed a little birding time this morning and spent it at a few spots in 
western Greene County.  The most notable find was a Ross's Goose on Jim Kirk 
Road, in a corn stubble field about a tenth of a mile from Mohawk Creek Road.  
Interestingly, three Ross's Geese were here, in almost exactly the same spot, 
on December 18-19, 2003.

Also present, at various other sites nearby, were:

Gadwall (23)
Northern Shoveler
Green-winged Teal (2)
Ring-necked Duck (5)
Pied-billed Grebe
American Coot (2).

Elsewhere in the county, I also found a Great Horned Owl and a Brown Thrasher.
