At the second of four Saturday bird walks scheduled this month at Sycamore 
Shoals State Historic Park, some good sightings included Bald Eagle, Osprey and 
Bay-breasted Warbler. The Osprey was "escorting" the eagle out of the area. 
Later, the Osprey was seen flying up the river with a large fish in its talons. 


Bryan Stevens and Jim D. Anderson with the Elizabethton Bird Club were joined 
by a former student of Gary Wallace's. Her first name was Tabatha, but I've 
forgotten her last name. She enjoyed a birding class she took with Gary at 
Milligan about a year ago and has continued to bird since. 


The Saturday walks begin at 8 a.m. from the parking lot at the park's visitors 
center. 


We had good looks at all of the following: 


Chimney Swift
Mockingbird
Starling
Northern Flicker
Blue Jay
Carolina Wren
Mourning Dove
Eastern Bluebird
Palm Warbler
Yellow-rumped Warbler
Mallard Duck
Carolina Chickadee
Bald Eagle

Canada Geese
Goldfinch
Red-tailed Hawk
Red-bellied Woodpecker
Crow
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
American Robin
Northern Cardinal
Song Sparrow
Tennessee Warbler
Downy Woodpecker
