Alan Troyer and I saw 9 Black Scoters far up lake, viewed from the dam at
Pickwick this afternoon when the rain stopped.
The birds were still present this evening at dusk.
An adult Red-throated Loon was also seen at the same time, close to the
South Shore beyond the TVA dock.
Not at Pickwick, but a flyby American Golden Plover at the Busseltown
Unit TNWR in Decatur County this morning was FOS and seen by Victor and
myself, and was species #451 on my year list.
The Plover spent 15 minutes in the river bottoms, then was seen heading
North towards the Duck River Unit.
