A brief walk at the Cove in Concord Park in west Knox County this morning 
yielded three Common Loons.  They were distant; a scope recommended but not 
necessary.  I watched a Great Blue Heron struggling with a large fish before 
finally managing to swallow it.  Also in the Cove at least 25 Bonaparte's and 
120 Ring-billed Gulls.  Half a dozen Pied-billed Grebes but no Horned were 
found.  I had to go to the boat ramp a mile or so east of the Cove to locate 
three of them.
