Yesterday morning (November 29) on Bluff Road in western Gibson County I had 2 
Marsh Wrens in a cattail marsh under some TVA powerlines and then down the road 
I had a Sedge Wren and at least 2 LeConte's Sparrows in a wet, grassy field.  
Also had a few Lapland Longspurs in a field on Hwy. 104 just west of Trenton.  
I caught up with a huge flock of blackbirds near the jct. of Hwy. 104 and old 
104 and there were both Brewer's and Rusty Blackbirds in the flock.

I've got to be in the Tiptonville area today so I'll try to check on the 
White-faced Ibis while I'm up there.

Good birding,
