[TN-Bird] Redheads - Knox Co


It's all about timing.  I was watching out the bedroom window this
morning before work, checking off the usual feeder birds including
our now regular RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH when a tight, irregular Vee
of 9 REDHEAD flew low over the yard heading SW down Black Oak Ridge.
Got nice looks with the binocs and then ticked off the ID points
from "Ducks from a Distance".  8 males and 1 female.  Yardbirds #151.

The waterfowl list for the yard now includes Canada Goose, Snow Goose,
teal species, N Pintail, Redhead, and Common Merganser... all flyovers
and all but Canada Goose seen only once.
