TN birders,
Managed both waterthrushes the same day, probably the first time that has ever 
happened.? Started the day at Standifer Gap Marsh(Hamilton Co) hoping for the 
LB Dowitcher, but no luck.? Things were quiet, with only a few lesser 
yellowlegs, few swallows, and a perched Osprey stand guard.

Lunch time along the access road to Nickajack Dam(Marion Co) produced 4 FOY 
birds-broad-winged hawk, 2 eastern kingbirds in front of the TVA police 
trailer, yellow-breasted chat, and a northern waterthrush at the wet area on 
the right on the access road to the boat ramp.

After work, swung by Riverport Ind Park(Hamilton Co) for a great look at a male 
Bobolink(FOY) with that wonderful vocalization.? Check the Chickamauga 
Dam(Hamilton Co) with the slim hope for the Willets flying around, but no 
luck.? Tried the? dirt road off Owl Hollow Road(Bradley Co) at the base of 
White Oak Mountain where Rick Waldrop had told me he had Louisiana waterthrush, 
and on the third try, heard and saw my bird, a new one for Bradley Co and 
FOY.?? Checked the fields at the Jackson Farm(Bradley Co) for Bobolinks, but 
nothing heard or seen.? If anyone has any leads on this one in Bradley Co, 
please let me know.
