Checking the ponds at Bent Creek Golf Course at Cobbly Nob in Sevier County, I 
found a Ruddy Duck (first for me there), 2 Northern Shovelers (another first), 
2 Mallard, 8 Killdeer, and one Forster's Tern (first for Bent Creek to my 
knowledge). Elsewhere were Canada Geese, two Bufflehead, and 1 Hooded 
Merganser. 

Here in Pittman Center, a large group of Wood Ducks on Huskey Lake grew to 31 
by the day's end. Pretty remarkable sight, along with 3 Hooded Merganser 
Drakes.
