FreeLists / tn-bird / [TN-Bird] Re: Greater White-fronted Goose, Great Egret, etc. (Greene Co., TN)

["Ben Britton" <benbrdn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Feb. 18, 2007 

I took a drive through W. Greene Co. Sun. afternoon, and took a quick check
of the pond, W. of Turner lane.  Sure enough, the 4 Greater White-fronted
Geese were still there among the Canada and Mallards.  I also saw a White
Goose resting, but could get no additional identifying marks.  The sign said
no tresspassing, so I did not tary too long. 

The TWRA refuge on S. Mohawk, had 10 N. Harriers coming to roost, but no
Short-eared owls yet.  I did venture a little further East, and located on
S.Oakwood Rd. a flock of 27 pipits and 42 Wild Turkeys.  Will keep on chkn
for those owls.
