Erwin Linear Park, and Hwy 81, Unicoi Co., TN
D. Holt

Dianne Draper and I walked from the Mc Donalds up past the ponds on the linear park trail Wed. and found a few birds.

Bufflehead - 1
Solitary Sandpiper - 1
Tree Swallows
Northern Rough-winged Swallows - frequently landing on tree branches close to the bridge giving good looks
Ruby-crowned Kinglet - 1
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher - 1
Yellow-rumped Warblers

We also saw a Muskrat and a Ring-necked Snake.

Later we stopped near the River's=edge Restaurant on Hwy 81 to look for Great Blue Herons on the nests, but didn't see any. We did however see a Purple Martin over the Nolichucky River.
