Northern Lake Co, Tn found a Osprey sitting in a tree over looking the pond off the west side of the levee that begins at approximately the end of Van Works Rd. I had just seen a 4-5 year Immature Bald Eagle that had flown off in that direction and at first when I saw a dark bird with white on its head and dark body I thought that was it again and when it turned and showed me a white chest and belly I looked closer and it was an Osprey. I took some distant photos. Also found a FOS Winter Wren sitting on the Beaver lodge off the boardwalk at the Ellington Visitor Center at Reelfoot. No other unusual birds seen. Ducks beginning to arrive. There is a two day Duck Hunt this weekend and the main season begins the weekend of Thanksgiving. The white Pelicans continue to be present in my "backyard" on Reelfoot.
