Margaret Mann called to advise that she saw an adult Golden Eagle today at
about 3 p.m. as it flew upstream (north) on the Cumberland River, behind her
home in the Opryland area of Nashville.  As a long-time avid birder, she
advised this is the third time over the years she has seen a Golden Eagle
from her yard overlooking the river.  She doesn't recall the time of year of
the prior two sightings, but this one seems a little late for the more
normal winter Golden Eagle migrants.  As Margaret joked, its cold enough
today (predicted 30 degrees tonight)  for anybody, or any eagle, to think it
is still winter.  I would welcome a report of any other sighting(s).
