July 11, 2003 79 Highway Lake Co. TN The pendulum is fast swinging the other direction. A report from Nancy Moore about a pool party being held off 79 Highway west in the Tumble weed area, gives us all a reason to get out and start greeting these returning "Wind Birds". The Solitary Sandpipers were not so Solitary with 19 counted along with 57 Least Sandpipers, 2 Spotted, a single Pectoral and the 2 Black-necked Stilts that have been hanging in the area for the past 3 weeks (maybe a nest nearby?). Good Birding!!! Jeff R.
