[TN-Bird] Turkey Creek Greenway - Rose breasted grossbeaks

Sunday morning around 10 a.m. I spent about an hour on the Turkey Creek 
Greenway in west Knox County, Tennessee, on the section between Lovell Road 
and Earthfare.  There were many, many birds.  I had 21 species; a more 
experienced observer would undoubtedly have gotten more.  Most exciting to 
me were at least 3 rose breasted grossbeaks, including a beautiful immature 
male, feeding on berries right beside the paved trail, sometimes only about 
6 feet up.  Also seen were a field sparrow and a palm warbler.
