Follow-up note, I can now confirm that a couple of previously reported species were relocated during the Knoxville CBC including the Greater White-fronted Goose near Pellissippi and the Merlin at Lakeshore Park which was nicely photographed by Melinda and Doug Fawver. Kelly and Jo Roy reported one of our harder-to-get species, 1 C Grackle (that's not a joke, no cowbirds reported yet) so Scott Somershoe didn't bogart ALL of them... guess we know where they go in winter now.
