[TN-Bird] Cades Cove

Today was a beautiful day at Cades Cove in Great Smoky Mountains National  
Park with rime ice on trees at higher elevations and heavy frost in the  Cove.  
The recent weather change brought changes to the birds at the  sewerage ponds. 
 On Tuesday there were 16 Bufflehead, 2 Hooded  mergansers, 1 mallard and 1 
Wood duck while today there were  31  Canada geese, 33 Bufflehead, 1 Hooded 
merganser, 1 Gadwall, 4 American Black  ducks, 6 Mallards, 1 Ring-necked duck, 
and 2 Wood ducks.  A total of 35  species were observed including a Brown 
thrasher, 2 Red-shouldered hawks, 1  Northern harrier, 1 Cooper's hawk and a 
Red-tailed hawk.
