This morning on October 30, 2005 Shane and Dennis Adams went birdwatching at

Great Blue Heron in the marsh and at the Cherokee Dam standing on a mudflat on
the right of the dam and 2 Great Blue Herons ( 1 was flying low towards the
creek on the right side of Dover Road and the second Great Blue Heron was
flying low over the first entrance of Brockland Acres on the left side of Dover
Road, Brown Thrasher in the bushes between the walkway, I also saw some
Sparrows in the field left of the walkway going towards the Viewing Blind 1 ( a
quick note in front the Viewing Blind 2 there are 2 wetland posters and a
partners in flight posters hanging on the billboard sign ), 2 on the both sides
of the Cherokee Dam: about 12 or more American Coots, Pied-Billed Grebe near
the rocky bluff on the right side of the Dam, 2 Double Crested Cormorants (
diving for food ) on Jefferson City side of the Cherokee Dam and also on the
Grainger County side of the Cherokee Dam a early Ring-Billed Gull flying next

mudflat where the lonely tree is standing where the Osprey and Cormorants sits
in looking towards the Cherokee Dam.
