[TN-Bird] Norris Songbird Trail

Got to work really late yesterrday (Thursday) as I stopped at Norris 
Songbird Trail (Anderson County) for a couple of hours on the way in (if you 
take the scenic route from west Knox County to downtown Knoxville).  Had my 
FOS EASTERN KINGBIRD and GRAY CATBIRD there.  First time I encountered the 
catbird it was singing.  The second time it was carrying a small piece of 
torn plastic in its bill (nesting material?).  Other highlights were BLUE 
GRAY GNATCATCHERS, RED-EYED VIREO and singing but unseen YELLOW-THROATED 
WARBLERS AND NORTHERN PARULAS.  A Canada Goose family was on the river by 
the weir dam with 6 goslings.
