11/182014 Dekalb Co. Traveling Drove a few roads near Smithville, TN this morning. Best birds were 13 Hooded Mergansers in a farm pond on Vaughn LN. Drove down to Edgar Evans State park. Had a nice raft of 30 Buffleheads. There were some other ducks but were out of range of my scope with the steam coming of the water and the white caps on the lake. Saw some Horned Grebes from the Marina. Heading back home on 840 between Lebanon and Murfreesboro I had great looks at and Imm. Northern Harrier and some Red-tailed Hawks. For some reason I have not been able to post or receive post on TN-Bird for about a week or so. Contacted the help desk and hopefully I am back on. Recent sightings from the past week that I could not post but were posted on eBird and Tennessee Birding on Facebook. 11-13-14 Hamilton Creek Boat Ramp, J. Percy Priest Lake, Nashville, TN I had a Female Black Scoter. 11-15-2014 Swamp Rd. Area Eagleville, TN I had a Mature and Imm. Northern Harrier and a nice flock of 30 American Pipits. 11-16-2014 Field Trials Area, J Percy Priest Lake, Lavernge, TN About Midday I had 1 Ross's Goose and 1 Greater White-fronted Goose along with about 60 Canada Geese. Also present were Redhead Ducks, Mallards, Gadwalls, Buffleheads, Belted Kingfisher and Bonaparte's Gulls. Sorry for the late post on TN-Bird hope I am back on now.
