Late this morning and early afternoon I headed up to the closed section of the Foothills Parkway (Blount Co) with Allan (11 months old now) and the two dogs. It wasn't ideal birding conditions but I did have a few nice birds: Osprey (actually flying along the Little River in Walland just before I got to the Parkway) Red Tail Hawk Turkey Vulture Mourning Dove Ruby Throated Hummingbird Chimney Swift Downy Woodpecker Red Bellied Woodpecker E. Phoebe Northern Rough Winged Swallow Am Crow Blue Jay Carolina Chickadee E. Tufted Titmouse White breasted Nuthatch Carolina Wren Blue-gray Gnatcatcher WOOD THRUSH Blue Headed vireo Red Eyed Vireo N. Parula Hooded Warbler Pine Warbler Black Throated Green Indigo Bunting Am Goldfinch Tracey Muise Tracey Muise "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.
