[TN-Bird] Semipalmated Plover, Rasar Farm, Elizabethton

Lee & Lois Herndon Chapter TOS members Reece Jamerson, Kim Stroud, Jean 
Potter, Bryan Stevens and David Kirschke helped lead a bird walk today at 
Sycamore 
Shoals State Park, Elizabethton. Four members of the public turned out for the 
walk. Highlights included male Blackpoll Warbler, Northern Waterthrush, 
Veery, several Spotted Sandpipers and Green Herons.
After the walk, Reece, Kim, Jean and Bryan continued to bird. A trip to 
Musick's Campground, S. Holston Lake, Sullivan County, produced four 
Double-crested 
Cormorants. 

Paddlecreek Pond near Bristol produced four (4) Grasshopper Sparrows as well 
as a Green Heron, and a few Spotted Sandpipers and Solitary Sandpipers. 

At this point, Reece, Jean and Bryan continued birding in Elizabethton at 
Rasar's Farm, where they saw two Great Blue Herons, four Wood Ducks, several 
Spotted Sandpipers, a Solitary Sandpiper and a Semipalmated Plover. The plover 
was 
a new state bird for Jean.
