Hi Folks
I went to Kyker Bottoms in Blount County on Sunday morning April 12 for about 
an hour to do a little birding.  Kyker is located off route 129 in the south 
west part of the county.  Very good directions are on the TOS website.  It was 
pretty wet there and I wasn't equipped to do much walking in the mud but I saw 
some good birds.  I had Blue-winged Teal, Canada Geese, Sora (heard calling 
couple of times but never actually saw the bird), Killdeer, lots of Tree 
swallows and Barn Swallows, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, Eastern Bluebirds, Blue 
Jays, White-eyed Vireos, Common Yellowthroats- several singing, Eastern 
Towhees, American Goldfinches, White-crowned Sparrows, many singing Field 
Sparrows, Swamp Sparrows and many Red-winged Blackbirds.
