     Today I heard my first Pine Warbler singing in the yard in
Jacksboro, TN
as well as Chickadees, Robins  and Carolina Wrens joining in the growing
chorus of Spring singers.   I have been hearing Field Sparrows over a
week, and today I heard a Chipping Sparrow also in the field by the
house..
Birding through several fields/ farmlands in Powell Valley (between
Lafollette and Well Springs -Campbell County , TN near Claiborne County) 
today I noted the Meadowlarks and Red Winged Blackbirds singing also.  3
Kestrels were all sitting low along fence rows hunting instead of on the
usual power lines. 
     A SNOW GOOSE was at Doaks Creek Pond (TVA land)  for a first time
sighting there. There were no  ducks there today. For some reason, the
pond is dry again.
      2 gorgeous adult WHITE CROWNED SPARROWS were feeding in the edge of
a cattle field in the little community of Fincastle, and also flew up and
began to proclaim how much they were enjoying the sunny day!.
