I birded Eagle Bend Hatchery at Clinton, Anderson County, TN on Thursday, 8/25 
from about 1645 - 1715.  There was little good mudflat habitat present.  The 
bottom large uppermost pond, which was drained late last week, is mostly dried 
out.  Several of the lower unlined ponds have just been mowed, and if we get a 
good soaking rain, these areas could now provide good shorebird habitat.  

Birds seen:
Great Blue Heron - 2
Green Heron - 5
Canada Goose - ~12
Mallard - several of mixed heritage
Killdeer - 70
Buff-breasted Sandpiper - 2 on levee between ponds in northeast sector of area
Mourning Dove - 100+
Belted Kingfisher - 1
Eastern Meadowlark - 5
