Cocke & Jefferson counties
French Broad River/Douglas Lake
We decided to take advantage of sunshine and a strong current to float a
canoe downstream from the Leadvale boat ramp through the 10 Islands area to
Walters Bridge yesterday from 3:00 to 5:00 PM. Douglas Reservoir elevation
was 958.4, so we didn't reach still water. There were decent mudflats,
relatively few species.
Wood duck
Mallard (5)
Green-winged teal (13)
Hooded merganser (5)
Double-crested cormorant
Great Blue Heron (24 - one had a yellow object -fishing lure? - lodged on
the crook in its neck)
Killdeer (52)
Ring-billed Gull (520 - most were on a shoal below Rankin Bottoms )
American pipit (4)
