At the conclusion of the Mossy Creek portion of the KTOS field trip to 
Jefferson County this morning, Harold Howell, Tony King and I went to the 
overlook at Cherokee Dam and found two rafts of ducks.  The closer one 
consisted of about 25  Buffleheads; the second smaller raft was more distant 
and we could not determine the species.  Harold then had to leave and Tony and 
I crossed the bridge into Grainger County and drove to the boat ramp off Rte. 
375.  We could see several hundred ducks on the water but Buffleheads and Scaup 
were the only species we managed to identify.  Most of the ducks were quite 
distant.
