Hi Birders: After the fog and clouds cleared Clinch Mountain around 11:00, EDT, we had a very productive day at the Mendota Tower. Our best birds included two beautiful, adult bald eagles and our first peregrine falcon of the season. Observers included Bob Quillen, Larry McDaniel, Bob Riggs, and Ron Pendleton. Sue Carter and her Environmental Research Class from Twin Springs High School were also present for part of the day. 9/23/03 Year-To-Date BWH 440 2104 SSH 2 15 OS - 6 ABE 2 4 RSH - 1 CO 1 6 AK 6 11 NH 2 4 Merlin - 2 PF 1 1 Hawk Watching: Catch the Fever Ron Harrington Bristol, VA ************************************************* BRISTOL BIRDS NET LIST This is a regional birding list sponsored by the Bristol Bird Club to facilitate communications between birders and bird clubs of Southwest Virginia and Northeast Tennessee.
