Yesterday afternoon (February 4), I took a short excursion through
southwestern Hawkins County, mostly on a scouting trip for future
reference. I began in Bull's Gap and worked my way up Bull's Gap-St.
Clair Road to St. Clair community. Turning north on Highway 344, I
proceeded to Cherokee Lake a few miles away and stopped briefly at
several shoreline areas. I then drove to Rogersville on Highway 11-W
and headed back toward Greeneville, stopping along Old Highway 70 near
the Hugh B. Day Bridge on Highway 66. Farther down Old Highway 70, I
caught Dru Hanes Road and followed it to Highway 70, which leads back
into Greene County.
Weather conditions were less than ideal, and I didn't record a lot of
birds. However, I did find several species that seldom get reported
from Hawkins County and thought it good to pass along the info. Here's
that list, along with a few other birds:
Great Blue Heron (7);
Turkey Vulture (21);
American Kestrel (3);
Ring-billed Gull;
Hairy Woodpecker;
Eastern Phoebe;
Winter Wren;
Golden-crowned Kinglet;
Hermit Thrush;
Cedar Waxwing (17).
