Sunday morning around 10 a.m. I spent about an hour on the Turkey Creek Greenway in west Knox County, Tennessee, on the section between Lovell Road and Earthfare. There were many, many birds. I had 21 species; a more experienced observer would undoubtedly have gotten more. Most exciting to me were at least 3 rose breasted grossbeaks, including a beautiful immature male, feeding on berries right beside the paved trail, sometimes only about 6 feet up. Also seen were a field sparrow and a palm warbler.
