Jean and Brookie Potter, Reece Jamerson and Bryan Stevens had a good stop at 
Musick's Campground at S. Holston Lake, Sullivan County, TN, on Tuesday, March 
6, from about 4:30-5:30 p.m.
We had 13 Common Goldeneyes (1 drake, 12 hens), 13 Redheads, 8 Ring-necked 
Ducks, 7 Eared Grebes, 5 Pied-billed Grebes, 3 Common Loons, 1 Double-crested 
Cormorant, 4 Canada Geese, 2 Mallards, 2 Killdeer and 75 Ring-billed Gulls. At 
the Musick's feeders, we saw Common Grackle, Red-winged Blackbirds and Northern 
Cardinals. 

In addition, Crows mobbing a Red-tailed Hawk at TWRA Access Area adjacent to 
Musick's.

At Paddlecreek Pond near Bristol, a single Mute Swan mingled with the various 
waterfowl. No Canvasbacks or Green-winged Teal this week, but we did have 
Ring-necked Duck, Gadwall, American Wigeon, Mallard, Wood Duck, Lesser Scaup 
and 
Hooded Merganser.

We did get Green-winged Teal (2) on the second small pond on the right after 
turning at Darter's Store on the way to Musick's Campground.

At Austin Springs, Boone Lake, in Washington County near Johnson City, we had 
Tree Swallows, Great Blue Heron and Black Vultures.
