[TN-Bird] possible Ross's, & Snows, Greene Co., TN

Lick Creek Bottoms WMA, Greene Co., TN

At dusk this evening, while watching at least nine Northern Harriers over a 
broomsedge field along Hwy 348 near the intersection with Oakwood Rd., I saw 
beyond them a flock of eight geese flying - two "blue" Snow Geese, and six 
white 
geese with black wingtips.  One of the six white birds was noticeably smaller 
than the rest, possibly a Ross's or Ross'sXSnow hybrid.  They settled in or 
near Lick Creek behind some trees.
