[East Tennessee Knox County Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge] Catherine Newell of Los Angeles, California, was birding at Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge in eastern Knox County yesterday (Monday, Sept 16) and reported seeing three BALD EAGLES. I was out there about a week ago and there were easily 100+ BARN SWALLOWs and RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDs. N BOBWHITE were calling (time was early afternoon). Several of the regular species there were heavily molting, and lots of young birds were present.
