From: Winston Walden 

I stopped at the Steam Plant on my way to Cookeville from the TOS
meeting in Bristol, VA.
I have not been there in a year or two, but when I went weekly during
the spring and fall, I never had a Bobolink.
 
Sunday I had a flock of five (5)  Bobolinks along the road you walk to
the settlement ponds.
Along this road and in the soccer field, I also had: two Lesser
Yellowlegs, three Semipalmated Plover, and two Killdeer.
At the pond, I had four Least Sandpipers.  I did no go beyond the base
area.
At the area where water in let into the lake and people fish, I had
several birds I had not had there before.  They were:
White-crowned Sparrow, Yellow Warbler, Orchard Oriole--one each.  The
Rough-wing, Barn and Cliff Swallows were also there.
At the settlement pond, I counted four Great Blue Heron and at the
fishing area, six.  The most Osprey I had at one time was three,
but there are surely more.  The Brown-headed Nuthatches are still in the
few remaining pines along the plant entrance road.
