This is a preliminary report on the Herndon TOS Summer Bird Count held June 5, 2004 in Carter Co., TN. With our usual able compiler Rick Knight in the Pribiloffs, I filled in at the last minute. Any of the participants who notice errors in this report are requested to send me corrections. We fielded 11 (?) participants in four parties, logging 260 miles by car and 7 miles by foot from 5:45 am to 10:30 pm, counting a total of 113 species. My list of participants may be incomplete, and I would appreciate it if party leaders would e-mail me any additions or corrected spellings. I believe participants included Tom McNeil, Bryan Stevens, Howard Langridge, David Thometz, Reece Jamerson, Tess Cumbie, Larry McDaniel, Gil Derouen, Don Holt, John Hay and Dianne Draper. Many thanks to the fine folks who helped out with this count, whether I listed you properly here or not.
