[TN-Bird] Re: Tundra Swans - Greenback Area - Loudon County, TN 1/25/09

Tony King just called me.  He and Denise relocated the Tundra Swans in Loudon 
County around 11:30 this morning.  He says they are about 100 yards off the 
road in the middle of a green field.  Driving on 411 from Lenoir City toward 
Maryville they are on the right hand side of the road some distance after 
passing the turnoff for Route 72.  If I am remembering correctly what he told 
me, after passing 72 there are homes and then fields.  The field where he and 
Denise saw the swans is opposite a commercial building with a big BNP sign on 
it.
