I did a short hike along the Appalachian Trail between Newfound and Indian Gaps 
along the TN/NC border on Sat, 19 March.  Nothing unusual but got  several of 
the high-altitude specialties including a dozen or so BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEEs, 
Red-breasted Nuthatchs, singing Golden-crowned Kinglets, a  drumming Ruffed 
Grouse, and lots and lots of 'Mountain' Juncos.  No luck with Crossbills.

On the way down, I had a Common Raven flying along the road near the Alum Bluff 
trailhead.

Earlier in the morning I had 3 Osprey and a Bald Eagle over the TN River bridge 
on Pellissippi Parkway at the Knox/Blount Co line.
