Spent a little time in Blount County Saturday, March 8. At Poland Creek
Recreation Area in among hundreds of ring billed gulls were 4 beautiful Lesser
Scaup (3 mailes and a female) in close and diving.
At Louisville Point Park saw an Osprey and 5 Pied Billed Grebes. The grebes
were difficult to see -- distant, bobbing up and down on the waves, looking
through heavy snow flurries.
At Ish Creek another Pied Billed Grebe, more Ring billed gulls. At all three
locations, lots of Tree Swallows.
