After striking out on Long-Tailed Duck again at Concord Marina in W. Knoxville, 
I headed to Cove Lake (Campbell Co.) to look for Common Merganser, which would 
be a new one for me. No luck on that one either but I had some nice birds there 
today with snow falling. Here are a few.

  main channel area:

Gadwall - 64+
Ruddy Duck - 5 (4 male)
Hooded Merganser - 1 female
Bald Eagle - 1 adult
Hermit Thrush - 1 (picnic tables)
White-Throated Sparrow - several (picnic tables)

  campground/shelters area:

Gadwall - 12
Pine Siskin - 2 (cedars)
Golden-Crowned Kinglet - 2 (cedars)

I also spotted a probable flock of Pine Siskins over I-75 near the Jacksboro 
exit. They were small w/ light coloration(seemed yellow) at the base of the 
tail.
