TN – birders,
Dollyann and I got a head’s up this morning about a possible White Ibis out at
the Eagle Bend fish hatchery in Anderson Co. We finally managed to get out
there about 4 pm this afternoon and it was still there. It was hanging out with
some shorebirds in the first pond on the left after you go under the power
lines. Recently drained pond is providing some nice shorebird habitat. Other
species included:
Wood Duck – 1
Great Egret – 1
Green Heron – 4
Juvenile White Ibis – 1
American Coot – 1
Semipalmated Plover - 2
Spotted Sandpiper – 1
Lesser Yellowlegs – 1
Least SP – 6
Pectoral SP – 1
Semipalmated SP – 2
Purple Martin – 5
Great birding,
