[TN-Bird] Greater White-fronted Goose, Sandhill Crane, etc. (Greene Co., TN)

February 28, 2009 
Greene County: Greeneville and points westward and southward, including Midway, 
McDonald, and Allen's Bridge areas 

Drizzly, chilly weather this morning, with temperatures dropping this afternoon 
and wind picking up--I spent about three and a half hours in the field, with 
nice results: 

Greater White-fronted Goose (4, Murray Bridge Road 0.1 mile west of Easterly 
Road); 
Wood Duck (3); 
Green-winged Teal (4); 
Canvasback (Gravel Woods Road); 
Ring-necked Duck (10, Gravel Woods Road); 

Wild Turkey (50); 

Northern Harrier; 

Sandhill Crane (4, Murray Bridge Road 0.1 mile west of Easterly Road; 
undoubtedly the same birds I found in this area on February 14); 

Wilson's Snipe; 

Savannah Sparrow (2); 
White-crowned Sparrow (15); 

Rusty Blackbird (2); 

Purple Finch (2); 
Pine Siskin.
