6 March 2014 Jim Ratchford and I birded six and one-half hours in Sullivan County today (Thursday). We counted 110 Red-necked Grebes at two impoundments - Boone Lake and Patrick Henry Lake. Out of that number, 101 were found on Boone Lake and nine (9) on Patrick Henry Lake. At Boone Dam, we also had a brilliant, male, Long-tailed Duck (often seen by others), 32 Red-Necked Grebe, 2 Pied-billed Grebe, 4 Horned Grebe, 1 Eared Grebe and ~ 150 Ring-billed Gulls. We noted about ~30 Great Blue Herons on nests in the rookery just below Patrick Henry Dam. Wallace Coffey Bristol, TN
