[TN-Bird] Cades Cove morning

Today was a beautiful morning in Great Smoky Mountains NP's Cades Cove with  
heavy frost and valley fog followed by bright sunshine and temps near 65 in 
the  afternoon. Lots of deer in the fields and bucks sparing at two  locations. 
While I didn't walk the fields like Susan and Kris, I did have a  productive 
day while doing my volunteer duties. These sighting are primarily  from Sparks 
Lane, the sewerage ponds and along the loop drive.
