Rob Biller, JT McNeil, and myself were returning from seeing the Brown
Pelican in Chattanooga yesterday (09/17), when we encountered a flock of
approximately 130 Cattle Egrets flying north along Highway 58 (about 5-8
miles or so south of Kingston, TN).  We followed the birds for about a mile
and eventually lost them as the highway veered away.

Also, Allan Trently reported a Willet at Kingston Steam Plant on the 15th
and there was still a Willet present there yesterday evening.
