I have finally compiled the Morgan County International Migration Bird Day - North American Migration Count data. Morgan County is in east Tennessee, northwest of Knox County. I counted for 12 hours, visiting Frozen Head State Park and the Lilly Bridge area of the Obed Wild & Scenic River, as well as some unnamed areas of Morgan County. Stan Wallace added a few birds at another area of the Obed. In the following bird list, the first number is for the entire county...the number in parentheses is for the Obed area (some people wanted those numbers separately). Green Heron 1 Canada Goose 15 (2) duck sp 6 Black Vulture 1 (1) Turkey Vulture 22 (22) Cooper's Hawk 1 (1) Red-shouldered Hawk 1 (1) Broad-winged Hawk 1 (1) Red-tailed Hawk 1 American Kestrel 4 Ruffed Grouse 1 (1) N Bobwhite 3 (2) Killdeer 9 Solitary Sandpiper 2 Rock Pigeon 7 Mourning Dove 17 (3) Yellow-billed Cuckoo 2 Chimney Swift 8 (3) Ruby-throated Hummingbird 2 (2) Belted Kingfisher 2 Red-bellied Woodpecker 1 Downy Wp 1 Hairy Wp 1 N Flicker 2 Pileated Wp 3 (1) E Wood-Pewee 3 Acadian Flycatcher 9 Willow Flycatcher 3 E Phoebe 5 (1) Great Crested Flycatcher 1 E Kingbird 2 N Rough-winged Swallow 11 (5) Barn Swallow 13 Blue Jay 6 (1) Am Crow 9 (2) Carolina Chickadee 5 (2) Tufted Titmouse 6 (2) White-breasted Nuthatch 1 Carolina Wren 22 (2) Blue-gray Gnatcatcher 9 (4, including a nest) E Bluebird 11 Wood Thrush 4 (4) Am Robin 23 Gray Catbird 5 N Mockingbird 4 Brown Thrasher 9 (1) Cedar Waxwing 10 (10) Eur Starling 75 White-eyed Vireo 8 (4) Blue-headed Vireo 3 (3) Yellow-throated Vireo 2 Red-eyed Vireo 31 (8) Tennessee Warbler 1 N Parula 3 (3) Yellow W 1 Black-throated Blue W 2 Black-throated Green W 18 (9) Yellow-throated W 12 (1) Pine W 5 (5) Prairie W 11 (5) Blackpoll W 1 Cerulean W 2 (2) Black-and-white W 4 (3) Am Redstart 6 (2) Worm-eating W 3 (3) Swainson's W 1 (1) Ovenbird 13 (2) N Waterthrush 1 Louisiana Waterthrush 1 (1) Connecticut W 1 (1) first record for the Obed region??

Great Blue Heron is a common bird that was missed - but I have never seen one in Morgan County, so I didn't expect it. I'm sure there are some there...somewhere....
