[TN-Bird] Northern Saw-whet banded Eastern TN

We caught and banded our first Saw-whet in Tennessee (Close to 1am, 
11-23-02).  We are set up at the foot of the Smokey Mountains, 45 min south 
of Knoxville and just north of The Great Smokey Mountains National Park in 
Blount County.  We have been up and running for the past month trying to net 
about once a week, but we had no luck until now.  Our patience and 
persistence paid off tonight!

We also caught an Eastern Screech owl and a Phoebe.
