Hey bristolbirders and butternuts,
Best bird find of my day Saturday was a pond at the intersection of
Hairetown Rd. and Pleasant Valley Rd. in Washington Co, TN. It held 24
Gadwall, 2
Northern Shovelers, and a Blue-winged Teal. Also on Corby Bridge Rd. near
Keebler Rd. in the pond behind the missing house were 6 more Blue-winged Teal.
Turtles were also basking in numbers today.
I saw toothworts, bloodroot and rue anemone blooming in several places
today. Also spicebush. A flowering plum in a neighbor's yard was full of
bees, plus a few Eastern Commas and Question Marks. Whites and yellows are out
and about. I looked for Henry's Elfin, but no luck. The redbud flowerbuds are
still pretty tight.
Depending on the weather, I might go to Weavers Bend in Cocke Co. Sunday
Morning to look for early flowers, birds, and butterflies, before I go to
Greeneville to meet up with the Greenevillle Bird Club for lunch and a field
trip
to western Greene Co. Anybody interested in joining me can call my cell
phone 423 914-5862 anytime tonight or in the morning. I'll probably try to
leave
the house around 8 am. That should give me a couple of hours to look around
at Weavers Bend.
