Was able to make it out to Austin Springs Bridge to see one of the two Snowy Egrets Rick Knight found this morning (Washington County). I spent the rest of my lunch break doing a little birding and went the long way back to the office. I went to what used to be St. John's Pond in eastern Washington County (near the St. John's Mill) and found a single Bobolink. I was on one of the fence posts behind where the pond used to be before it became unable to hold water. (According to farmer Sam - who I spoke to briefly - the ground became too soft to hold water. Anyway, the Bobolink flew to the field away from the pond and plopped down. I thought there might be more but could not locate anymore. They may have been in the tall grass but I couldn't find them before I finally had to leave and get back to work. Rob Biller Elizabethton, TN -- Robert Biller Elizabethton, TN
