[TN-Bird] Pellisippi State College geese

Hi folks,

I needed to pick Tracey up at school on our way home for the
holidays, and her school is just a few miles from Pellisippi Comm
Coll, (West Knox County, just beyond the north terminus of I-140) so
I dropped by there on the way to get her.  No geese at all.  not a
one.  The flock of about 35 Killdeer was a weak consolation.

So I got back on the road to go to get her.  And I saw 2 flocks of
about 30 geese each heading in the direction of the college!  And
there was a white goose in each flock!  I turned around and went
back, and there were 27 Canada Geese with one Ross's Goose.  I don't
know where the other flock went, and I never saw the Greater
White-fronted that I was *really* hoping for.  But ROGO is nice,
indeed.

Now we're stuck in Maryland with a broken down car.  At least it was
near family...

Happy holidays,
Charlie
