Went to Reelfoot lake last weekend on the annual ETSU birding trip there with
Dr. Alsop and students. We saw and heard 99 species of birds including the trip
up and back!
Notably, Ross's Goose (in an enormous mixed group of Snow Geese and
White-fronted Geese), Lapland Longspurs, LeConte's sparrow, Horned Larks,
Common Loons, Hooded Merganser, Am. Coots, all seven species of Woodpeckers on
the TOS list, and of course many Bald Eagles.
Dr. Alsop also called up several Barred Owls and Great Horned Owls and a Barn
Owl. We saw the American Woodcock doing its crazy mating dance!
Really a wonderful experience-I recommend it!
