Rankin Bottoms (RB) and various other sites in northern Cocke County

I observed the following today in a brief trip to Cocke County:

Osprey (3--2 RB, 1 nearby at Rankin Bridge; all showed nesting behaviors);
Greater Yellowlegs (RB);
Pectoral Sandpiper (RB);
Wilson's Snipe (2 RB);
Tree Swallow (15);
Pine Warbler (2 singing males);
Chipping Sparrow (singing male).

There was very little water at Rankin Bottoms. Lake levels are still at winter lows, and there has been almost no rain lately.
