It's funny how things come together sometimes.  During the Herndon TOS Spring 
Count on Saturday, I noticed in passing some nests in the top of some dead 
pines on the south side of the road on Hwy 107 near the point where the 
Nolichucky River comes closest to the road, close to mile marker 5, between 
Onks Lane and Roaring Creek Road.  Sunday at the Herndon compilation I learned 
that Joe McGuiness had been watching them in hopes it would be an active Great 
Blue Heron nesting colony.  I went by them on my way to the Greeneville Bird 
Club's count compilation Sunday about 4:30 pm and counted 19 nests with Great 
Blue Herons on them.  At the Greeneville compilation I found that several other 
birders had noticed the nests earlier also.
