The Kingsport Amrican White Pellican seen often on Netherland Inn Road in Sullivan County was 2 Feb 1995 thru at least Mar 1996 and was back and forth between Johnson City V.A. pond, Austin Springs (both in Washington County) and Kingsport. The actual ending date of it in the region is somewhat clouded by the fact that the people up at Bays Mountain Nature Center caught it in a net and took it to the center to take care of it because they said it was injured. It is reported to have died at Bays Mountain. They had no record of the date they captured it off the river nor the date it died. A rather unfortunate situation. But, I guess, that would be a summer record for Northeast Tennessee during the summer of 1995. Let's go birding....

In our five county area there was the famous Kingsport bird of Netherland Inn Road several years but I am not sure of the duration or exact time frame of that American White Pelican visit. Is anyone else?
