Addendum to Rick Knight's post of late yesterday regarding the upper Douglas
Lake outing by Bristol-area and Greeneville -area birders--
Rick offered a more complete summary of our findings than I had in my notes,
but there are a few additions that I can provide:
Wood Duck (2 at Rankin)
Blue-winged Teal (about 30 birds at Rankin)
Little Blue Heron (fly-by immature at Rankin; all-green legs and bluish bill
seen well)
Black-bellied Plover (2 at Rankin; viewed from eastern point of land near
tipple by me and a few other birders along very distant eastern shore while
main group of birders were scanning nearer shoreline from tipple road)
Baird's Sandpiper (an additional individual at Rankin; viewed by me and other
birders from eastern point of land near tipple)
Eastern Kingbird (5, mostly at Rankin)
Also--I drove home via Highway 160 through Hamblen County and found two
Eurasian Collared-Doves at the industrial site in Lowland.
