This morning (13 Dec), Chris Sloan banded 2 Rufous Hummingbirds at Gray, in Washington Co. One was an adult female & the other was an immature female. These birds had been first reported about a week ago by JC Press reporter James Brooks. Also this morning, there were 7 Gr. White-fronted Geese in a large flock of Canadas at a farm pond near Gray, on Hales Chapel Rd. (just west of Shadden Rd). ################### Rick Knight Johnson City, TN rknight@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ************************************************* BRISTOL BIRDS NET LIST This is a regional birding list sponsored by the Bristol Bird Club to facilitate communications between birders and bird clubs of Southwest Virginia and Northeast Tennessee.
