Me and Gary Cooper decide to go birding this morning at Hampton Creek Cove
in Carter Co Tn. The scenery was great but the birding was a little slow so
we decided to go to Osceola Island and the Weir Dam in Sullivan Co Tn. I am
glad we did, as we were driving up toward the dam I stopped on the side of
the road ad started scanning some small trees near the river. I spotted what
I thought was an American Tree Sparrow, so we got out to investigate
further. I had my camera with me so as I approached the bird I started
taking photos. When I looked to see how the shots were the camera
malfunctioned and said no data on card. The bird had flown by this point and
I had no photos. We luckily relocated the bird a little farther down in a
creek lined with small trees and I was able to get a shot or two of it.
Michele Sparks and Bill Grigsby came out to see the bird but it had flown
before they arrived. They were trying to relocate it when we left at 02:30.
I hope they find it. The pics and list are below.
