[TN-Bird] White-fronted Geese in Wayne County

Earlier today, I was working in the southwest portion of Wayne County.  While 
driving past Weatherford Creek Reservoir (DeLorme p. 18, D4), I noticed some 
waterfowl present.  A quick scan yielded 20+ Canada Geese, 2 adult 
WHITE-FRONTED GEESE, 15 Lesser Scaup and 4 Ring-necked Duck.  Waterfowl is rare 
in this county (large water bodies are lacking), so this may be a first county 
record for the White-fronted Geese.  I went by Bear Creek Reservoir (just north 
of Weatherford Creek Res.) and found 30+ Canada Geese, 3 Gadwall, 30 
Ring-necked Duck, 2 Lesser Scaup and 2 Common Goldeneye.
