On this coming Saturday, March 20, The BBC will be sponsoring a field trip to Greene County. Our trip leader will be Don Miller. We will meet at 8 o'clock a.m. at the Homestead Restaurant, southwest of Greeneville on the right side of highway 11E (#3124). If you are coming from I 81, take Exit 23 toward Greeneville and the restaurant will be on the left side of highway 11E. This is a great time to be in the field!!! Spring is dawning and there have already been many reports of spring arrivals. We will have lunch at a local restaurant or you can bring your own! I hope to see you all this coming Saturday!!! Any questions, call me at 423-349-6440 or send an email to _jpmoyle18@xxxxxxxx (mailto:jpmoyle18@xxxxxxx) . John Moyle Glen Alpine Road Kingsport/ Sullivan County Birders, I wanted to share the Woodpeckers are back regularly on my farm - haven't seen the Pileated yet. For those of you who want to avoid the freeway, I did want to note for GPS users, that the Homestead Restaurant is located at 3124 West Andrew Johnson Highway 639.0598 (Highway 11-E). Taking 11E in from Bristol or JC might be a nice scenic route, albeit early. I have noted several Hawks on 11E and in particular a pair near Science Hill HS, sometimes right on 11E and sometimes near their ball field. Meet at 8am and leave immediately thereafter for a trip to western Greene County. The outing will last until midday. Nata
