I birded TVA's Kingston Steam Plant (Fossil Plant) in Roane County, 
Kingston, TN on Saturday, November 26, 2005 from 12:06 and 1:50 pm.  A great 
expanse of mudflats exist in the river (Watts Bar Lake) all of which is 
non-vegetated but a good percent is dry.  The following is a list of birds 
seen.  Numbers represent number of individual birds counted.  No number 
represents birds I did not count.
