Here's a link to a recent TWRA story about dead birds that have tested
positively for salmonella in regions III and IV.  Per the article, they have
taken bird seed samples for testing but do not have the results yet.

Though belated, I also wanted to relay that we observed two Osprey at a nest
site near the TVA Bull Run Steam Plant in Oak Ridge (Anderson Co.).  The
birds were observed on Saturday, 07 March 2009, from the intersection of
Melton Lake Drive and Edgemoor Road.  The birds were seen on top of a large
powerline tower that held a successful nest last year.  Though we were only
driving by, we could see one bird on the nest and another sitting on the
opposite side of the tower.  

Good birding,
