Jimi and I visited Big South Fork National River and Recreation Scott and
Fentress County, TN) area on Saturday.
Though mostly for rest and quiet solitude, I could not help birding some.
We saw a VESPER SPARROW just off Hwy 297 in a field. A BROAD-WINGED HAWK
had arrived as well as Blue-Headed Vireos; a singing Hermit Thrush-
YBSapsucker and a flyover PINE SISKIN were the highlights.
YELLOW-THROATED WARBLERS were singing along the road descending into the
gorge.
On the home front here in Jacksboro, we still have 6-9 Purple Finch that
have been with us 2 months. A lone Pine Siskin was seen this week also.
Eastern Bluebirds have their nest built and it appears ready for the eggs
any day now. Blue-Headed Vireos are in, and this am (Sunday) I heard
the first Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher in the yard.
