[TN-Bird] KTOS field trip announcements

east Tennessee...Knox County

Saturday, April 29
8:00 a.m. Public bird walk on Sharps Ridge...
12:30 p.m. Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge
Leader: David Trently (dtrently@xxxxxxx; w 865-974-8664; h 865-531-1473).

SHARPS RIDGE
Other chapter members will serve as co-leaders as we bird our way along the 
road. The more birders we have listening, the more birds we will see, and that
may translate into new recruits for our hobby. Meet at the J.B. Owen overlook 
at 8 a.m. The walk will be along the road in Sharps Ridge Memorial Park. 
Spring
migrants are the objects of this field trip. Orioles, grosbeaks, warblers and 
other migrants are expected.
The general public will be invited.

SEVEN ISLANDS WILDLIFE REFUGE
For those interested, we will then go to lunch, followed by a walk at Seven 
Islands Wildlife Refuge. Here we will hope to add many field birds, including 
Northern Bobwhite, Yellow-breasted Chat, Grasshopper Sparrow, Blue Grosbeak, 
Bobolink and, hopefully, Bald Eagles.
Meet at the parking area at the entrance at 12:30.
