Washington County: Powell Road 

Catching Rick Knight's post of shorebirds on Powell Road late this afternoon, 
David Kirschke and I headed there after work.  We arrived shortly before 6:00 
and stayed until a little after 7:00.  We were joined for part of the evening 
by Larry McDaniel and Rick Knight.

Shorebirds were remarkably plentiful for northeast Tennessee.  I tallied the 
following:

Killdeer (2)
Lesser Yellowlegs (18)
Willet
Ruddy Turnstone
Semipalmated Sandpiper (2)
Western Sandpiper (2)
Least Sandpiper (11)
Pectoral Sandpiper (25)
Stilt Sandpiper

Thanks, Rick, for alerting everyone to the fallout.
