Quick Bird Report: Saw our first hooded mergansers today on a nearby farm pond. (Bedford Cop TN- Normandy) Two weekends ago, we saw two sets of five wood ducks in southern Bedford Co / Lincoln/ Moore Counties near Chestnut Ridge on two different creeks (two different sets because they were spotted in close proximity, time-wise.) That same week, while canoeing, we had 25 + woodies fly up from Duck River (Bedford Co). Winter goldfinches are here, too. White-crowned sparrows & white-throats were spotted last week near Wartrace (Bedford Co).
