[James M Moore <jimimoore@xxxxxxxx>]

A brief drive through Eagle Bend Fish Hatchery in Clinton, Tn - along the
Clinch River  (Anderson County)  yesterday July 22:
   1 SOLITARY SANDPIPER
    1 SPOTTED SANDPIPER
     2 LEAST SANDPIPER
      4,000 KILLDEER
       13 PECTORAL SANDPIPER.  One very large , plump looking  Pectoral
had me thinking Reeve for a few minutes until I was able to study the
field marks  more closely with the scope and deemed it a Pectoral. 
 A few of the ponds had the water drained for pretty good conditions,
though they will dry up quickly before more migrants can utilize them.  2
Black Ducks were also present, along with several Mallard/Black Duck
looking probable hybrids.
