February 19, 2006 Hawkins County (John Sevier Fossil Plant (JSFP) and vicinity, and various other spots along and near the Holston River between Highway 70 and Van Hill Road) For a couple of hours late this morning, until about noon, I birded a few areas in Hawkins County that I thought might be productive. Results were pretty good: Canada Goose (11); Gadwall (3 on McKinney Chapel Road); Wild Turkey (30 on Highway 347 south of the Holston River); Great Blue Heron (JSFP); Black Vulture (7); Osprey (JSFP); Ring-billed Gull (14 JSFP); Eastern Phoebe (Dru Hanes Road); Tree Swallow (13 JSFP) (my earliest northeast Tennessee date by five days); Palm Warbler (7 JSFP).
