I neglected to mention a rare duck that appeared at the Hohenwald Wastewater Treatment plant on Wednesday 8/27/2014. This is only my third record for this species in Lewis County in 12 years, and I carefully ruled out the two other quite similar species that have also been recorded in Tennessee:


Mallard

Really, this is a rarity here. We don't have a local feral population, and the migrant birds are quite scarce.
