We took A late start to Eagle Bend, but still found some shorebirds.  Seven 
Semi-palmated Plovers, lots of Lesser Yellowlegs, a couple of Spotted and 
Solitarys.  We didn't find the breeding plumaged Stilt SP, but did find a 
rather drab one that was just molting  with a few fresh feathers on it's back.  

We can't get that close to Norris without checking, even though it was after 
noon.  We weren't disappointed.  Lots of Red-eyed Vireos, at least 4 Orchard 
Orioles, male and female Baltimore Orioles, n. Parulas, a single American 
Redstart, Wood Thrushes singing, Chats chattering, White-eyed Vireos and just 
Lots of birds.  

Maybe our best day of birding since we moved to TN.
