Dec 29-S. Fork Holston River, Kingsport, Sullivan Co, TN
Great Egret (1) hunting along shore across S. Fork Holston R. from the boat 
ramp below the GBH colony.  Will post video link after I get it off the camera

Black and Turkey Vulture - mixed - (over 200 - too hard to count ind. species 
but both were there in numbers) at roost on island near confluence of N. and S. 
Fork Holston River, Kingsport, Sullivan County, TN - birds already present and 
rolling in from 3:00 pm until 5:00 pm.  Worth a look (especially on 60+ degree 
days).  Got video of this too.  Will post a link later.
