A few of the guys I work with are closet birdwatchers.  Last
year one of them told me about a Bank Swallow colony on the
Clinch River in Anderson County.  Today, another just told me
about a sandpiper he saw on his lunchtime jog around the
business park we work in last Friday.  He pulled a copy of
Peterson out of his desk and said it looked like an Upland
Sandpiper.  I quized him on a few details and they pan out.
The field where he saw it would be good habitat for them.

I'm going to run by there after work tonight, though I expect
it would have left with the weather.

This is in West Knoxville, in the Pellissippi Corporate Center
off of Hardin Valley Road (on the opposite side of Pellissippi
Parkway from Pellissippi State).  From Pellissippi Parkway,
take the Hardin Valley exit and head east (toward Knoxville).
Take the second left onto Cherahala Blvd and follow it up and
around to the right.  There are large fields on either side
of the road.
