[TN-Bird] Osprey at Rankin

Rankin Bottoms, Cocke county, 3/5/10, 3-4 PM

  An osprey  was standing in the nest on the old Rankin Bridge  
yesterday, the earliest  that  I've ever seen one in Cocke county.   
Judging by its size, it was a female.  The nest has been occupied  
every year since 1998.

Also:
Wood duck (7)
Am. Widgeon (2)
Blue-winged teal (2)
Green-winged teal (45)
Killdeer (68)
Tree swallow (36)
Am. pipit (11)
Yellow-rumped warbler (12)
Savannah sparrow (3)
