Standifer Gap Marsh, Chattanooga, Hamilton Co., TN

Pied-billed Grebe
Wood Duck 4
Gadwall 40
Canada Goose 5
Mallard 10
Northern Shoveler 8
American Coot 50
Virginia Rail 5, vocal, at least 2 giving 2-note "mating call"
Common Snipe
Sedge Wren, usual location in tall grass/rushes at south end
Silent, wary. I haven't seen Sedge Wren since Jan 3. I
believe today's Sedge Wren has been there all winter, rather
than returning early. The tall grass/rush area is 5 or more acres,
this bird could easily hide, and in cold weather probably doesn't
respond to recorded calls (which I didn't use today).
