Larry McDaniel's talk of a Red-tailed Hawk inspecting a nest reminds that today there were MANY more Great Blue Herons around Phelps Dairy Farm Pond in Blount County, and at least 15 were standing on nest. During my other trips there last week, there were only a handful of them, and none were on nest. Thursday there were a number of Chorus frogs singing in Cades Cove (Great Smoky Mtn NP, Blount County) Charlie ===== ************************************************** Charlie Muise, Naturalist near Great Smoky Mountains National Park "Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of cancer." -Edward Abbey ************************************************** __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
