Saturday on a brief trip to the Walker Springs Park-10 Mile Creek Greenway 
in Knoxville I was fortunate enough to see a yellow-billed cuckoo sitting 
out in the open near the top of a small willow across the creek from me.  I 
watched the bird for 2-3 minutes before it flew, during which period it 
changed position in the tree a couple times, giving me good looks from 
several angles.  When it flew, it passed across the path in front of me.  
What a thrill!
