TVA Lake,
Ensley and North Treatment plants,
Shelby Co. TN
 
On the 3rd trip to TVA Lake today, I found a Neotropic  Cormorant in with 
the DC Cormorants along with a pair of  Black-bellied Whistling Ducks. 
 
Shorebirds numbers exploded this week, but only 12 species found today at  
both the north and south waste water treatment plants. Best bird today was 
at  Ensley, a slightly molted, breeding plumaged Sanderling with a colorful  
tri-colored head. Only other species of note were today; 8  Semipalmated 
Plovers, 2 Stilt Sandpipers and a total of 14 Spotted Sandpipers.  An 
unexpected Upland Sandpiper was found in Haywood Co, this past Tuesday.  The 
last 10 
days has produced 15 species of Wind Birds. 
 
Last weekend a single Black Tern was seen on the Mississippi River, Friday  
3 were seen at Pickwick above the dam and today 6 on the Mississippi at  
Memphis.
 
Photos later.
 
Good Birding  !!!
