[TN-Bird] Pectoral Sandpiper

     I observed a lone PECTORAL SANDPIPER  late this afternoon at Cove
Lake State Park, in Campbell County, TN.  This is the first time I have
ever seen one in blowing snow!  He was feeding frantically in some pools
of water along with 4 Killdeer. 
    Tree Swallows numbered around 50.
      Apparently there is a Turkey Vulture roost at the park behind the
campground. I have ovserved 25-28 TV  the past several evenings coming 
in over the park, and landing in that vicinity, as well as the same today
in a snow shower.  I also had an AMERICAN PIPIT this afternoon. 
Otherwise it was very quiet with no waterfowl other than a few Mallards
and Canada Geese.
