Birded a bit around Minga Marsh, Tri-cities Airport, Sullivan County last week and this week. I had a Sora calling from Minga Marsh on May 9, 11,12, and 13. A few Savannah Sparrows and Grasshopper Sparrows hanging around the grassy areas just outside the airport property near the marsh. Both are singing. Also had Bobolinks in the same area on May 13. Saw an Osprey flying over Oak Hill Cemetery in Kingsport late yesterday about 6 pm.
