A group of 20 enthusiastic birders met for the TOS winter meeting at the Duck 
River and Busseltown units of the TN. NWR. Highlights included a Golden Eagle, 
but no Eurasian Wigeon, at Busseltown. Besides the expected ducks and ring 
billed gulls, a lone Ross' Goose and several Wilson's Snipe were also seen at 
Busseltown toward late afternoon. Earlier in the day at the Duck River Unit, 
most all of the dabblers were seen and a few divers such as Canvasbacks and 
Buffleheads were on the Tennessee River near Pool 1. Rusty Blakbirds were 
prominent along the farmland near the refuge. Geese included Canada, Greater 
White-fronted, and Cackling. Several Redheaded Woodpeckers and Northern 
Flickers, and raptors such as Bald Eagle, Merlin, Red shouldered and Red-tailed 
hawk helped to round out the day.

Heading to Pace Pointand surrounding area tomorrow. Come join us!
