I found a pair of Wood Ducks this evening at the pond along Glenfield Trail,
located just off Old Tusculum Road in Greeneville. A short distance away, at
the intersection of Old Tusculum Road and Highway 107, I also found a Great
Horned Owl perched on an electric wire.
Today's Wood Ducks just missed being winter (December-February) birds rather
than spring (March-May) birds. Looking back at my Greene County records, I
noticed that I found no Woodies this past winter. This is unusual, as I nearly
always manage to locate at least one sometime in early to mid-December or in
late February. Apparently, the atypically cold winter drove them out of the
area this past season.
