Area Birders:
On Thanksgiving morning I discovered the Ross's Goose along
Tenn. Rt. 44 near where it becomes Va. Rt. 75 just south of
the Virginia stateline in Sullivan County, TN. not far from
Musick's Campground.
At 8:30 a.m. it was feeding in the corn stubble field with 75
Canada Geese. This location is 4.9 miles east of Middlebrook
Lake whee the bird is most often seen.
Later in the morning I met up with Don Miller and Linda
Norththrop, birders from Greeneville, TN. Don said they had
just come from Middlebrook Lake where, at 9:50 a.m., the
Ross's Goose flew in with 15 Canada Geese.
I was a Middlebrook Lake at 10:50 a.m. but it was not then
to be found among the geese hanging out.
Happy Thanksgiving.....
