At tonight's KTOS meeting, we added another field trip to our May
lineup. (See http://www.tnbirds.org/downloads/KTOScurrent.pdf for our
other field trips.) This trip should be convenient to folks in the
Crossville and Chattanooga areas.

Watts Bar Lake, Kingston, TN
Leader: Kathy Bivens (865-983-7349, cell 865-250-6410).

This field trip is a two-hour charter cruise aboard the Watts Bar
Belle, a split-wheel paddleboat that is wheelchair accessible and
equipped with bathrooms. Potential bird sightings include waterfowl,
shorebirds, osprey, and herons and eagles on their nests. Bring your
scopes! If there is enough interest, the group may visit the ash ponds
at Kingston Steam Plant after lunch. [Box lunches are available on the
boat for an additional $13 charge.] The Belle is located about a mile
south of I-40, exit 352, on S. Kentucky St in the Hwy 58 Landing Park.
