FRI 18 FEB 2011 Westview, Washington Co., TN D. Holt I checked on the Ross's Geese at the pond on Powell Rd. near Westview School at 7:25 am. I could not find them then, but later in the day around maybe 1:30 pm Brookie Potter called me to tell me they were there. I saw them grazing with a flock of Canada Geese shortly thereafter. I do not know if they flew in from elsewhere or were there all along hunkered down in a depression when I looked earlier. My thanks to Brookie and Jean, they just keep adding the really cool waterfowl species to my year list!
