Today was a gorgeous day in Cades Cove. On Hyatt Lane I had a pair of
Northern harriers cavorting across the fields and an immature harrier near the
Abrams Falls Trail parking area. Also on Hyatt Lane I had 4 FOS Vesper
sparrows. At the sewage ponds were 3 FOS Hooded mergansers and 4 FOS
Bufflehead along with 24 migrant Wood ducks and 6 newly arrived Canada geese.
During the morning there were many small flocks of Red-winged blackbirds and
Brown-headed cowbirds flying down the Abrams Creek drainage. I ran into
Bruce Newman at the sewage ponds who told me he had White-crowned sparrows
there but i could not find them.
