Seven birders saw 31 species at the monthly Black Mountain birdwalk this 
morning at 8:00 am.  After a short stay at Lake Tomahawk, we headed out to Eden 
Lake/ Camp Rockmont west of town. We watched a Great Blue Heron try to swallow 
a 1/2 pound catfish (he as still working on it when we left). Highlights were 
Wood Ducks, Mandarin Ducks (not counted), many Tree Swallows, Brown Thrasher, 
many Yellow-rumped Warblers, and two White-throated Sparrows.
