West Knox Co, 9 May 2007

When we first moved in I thought ther might be a chance but had
long since given up on this one.  And just last week at the KTOS
meeting I said I wasn't aware of any still in the Knoxville CBC
circle.  Then this morning, I heard the unmistakable call from
valley (Ball Camp) below our ridge --- Bob-bob-white --- repeated
many times.  Of course origin could be a concern.  Not sure of
its relation to the peacock and chickens I hear from the valley
or the Ring-necked Pheasant Amber found at Ball Camp Elementary
School one night.  Ehh, yardbird #149.

Also of interest this morning:

Red-eyed Vireo, 3+

Blackpoll Warbler, 1 singing
CANADA WARBLER, 1 singing, 20th yard-warbler of the season

Summer Tanager, 1

Rose-breasted Grosbeak, 6+
