[TN-Bird] Anderson Co. 03/29 & 03/30: FOS BH Vireo & Odd Goose

On Saturday morning, we birded Norris Dam State Park (Norris, Anderson Co.)
by way of enjoying a spring wildflower hike along the River Bluff Trail.  On
the upper loop of the trail, we were pleased to hear our FOS singing
Blue-headed Vireo.  

We also visited Eagle Bend Fish Hatchery (Clinton, Anderson Co.) on the way
back toward home and then returned today. Birds of note today included: 3
Lesser Scaup, 28 Blue-winged Teal, and 1 Canada Goose with oddly damaged or
deformed wings.  We noted the CANG with deformed or injured wings yesterday
and went back to document it.  Photos are available at
http://www.flickr.com/photos/14544552@N05.  Any insight regarding what
appears to be wrong with the wings would be much appreciated.
