[TN-Bird] White-Winged Scoter, Old Hickory Dam

Old Hickory Dam, Davidson county
Beach parking lot
This morning at 6:30am, I scanned for the Surf Scoter found earlier 
this week from the dam area, and found a single White-Winged Scoter, 
pale spots in front of and behind the eye, and a white patch at base of 
wings visible most, but not all, of the time.  Surf Scoter was not 
seen, but may still be around.

With hundreds of gulls flying around, I drove over to Snow Bunting 
Peninsula and counted 7 Herring Gulls, most immature, among the hordes 
of Ring-Billed Gulls.  I wish this area was on the Hendersonville side 
so I could check it several times a week.
