The Knoxville Chapter of the Tennessee Ornithological Society will sponsor
the following field trip on December 7, 2002. Remember Pearl Harbor. The
remainder of the weekends will be occupied by Christmas Bird Counts.
Saturday December 7, 2002, 8:00 AM
Field trip to Tellico Dam area beaver ponds and adjacent waters and fields.
Leader Wes James (988-2433) Meet in the Tellico Canal Bathhouse/parking
area adjacent to the canal that connects Tellico and Fort Loudon Reservoirs.
This area is reached by taking the first exit after crossing the Fort Loudon
Dam bridge. The exit says
Tellico Village, Route 444. After taking this exit you go straight across
the Tellico Parkway (Route 444) to the bathhouse and parking area. Same
road that goes to the Tellico Canal boat ramp.
We will visit beaver pond areas adjacent to the dam as well as the open
water
areas of the reservoirs. There is also a lot of early
succession "sparrow" habitat. Expect to see several waterfowl
and wading bird species, sparrows, raptors, and numerous other passerines.
This field trip will cover an area not covered in previous field trips to
the area. We could finish up before lunch time, but bring water and a
snack. Walking should be fairly moderate.
