TN-birders,
Mike Smith, the manager of the Eagle Bend fish hatchery in Anderson County, 
called me this morning saying he had an unusual white bird at the hatchery. 
Dollyann and I just went out there to check it out and it is a winter plumaged 
AMERICAN AVOCET. The bird is in the "L" shaped pond in the right rear part of 
the hatchery. Other species of interest seen included:
Gadwall - 6
Green-winged Teal - 4
Bufflehead - 7
Ring-billed Gull - 7 (first of season seen by us at the hatchery)
Palm Warbler - 1

The Black-bellied Plover that has been out there for the past 2-3 weeks was NOT 
seen today.

Great birding,

Ron Hoff and Dollyann Myers
Clinton, TN
