On Tuesday, May 1, Gil Derouen, Reece Jamerson and Bryan Stevens visited Paddlecreek Pond in Bristol, TN. 

In addition to the resident Mute Swan, we found a single Mallard drake.

Shorebirds present included:
Least Sandpipers- 6
Lesser Yellowlegs- 2
Wilson's Snipe- 1
Spotted Sandpiper- 4
Solitary Sandpiper- 9
Killdeer- 1
We also had a Great Blue Heron as well as such birds as Eastern Kingbirds, Eastern Meadowlarks and Barn Swallows.
Earlier, at Austin Springs on Boone Lake near Johnson City, we had two Green Herons.
At Musick's Campground, S. Holston Lake, we had two Ospreys, a Yellow Warbler, Common Loon and a mix of Bonaparte's and Ring-billed Gulls.
