Actually, the flock I saw was in Maryville, on the Greenway (Blount
County).
I also had a Black-throated Green Warbler, several Indigo Buntings, a
handful of Song Sparrows and a few Rose-breasted Grosbeaks.
While in Knoxville I did have a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. It flew
over the Knoxville Firefighting Training Center, which is just north
of the Knoxville Zoo.
You know, Knoxville isn't a word I can type very quickly. I'm glad I
live in Blount County. :-)
Today we had the first Eastern Meadowlark of the season in Walker
Valley (Tremont, Blount County, Great Smoky Mountains National Park).
They fly over the main crest of the Smokies, and ofter land here in
the valley, or in Cades Cove on their way south. We also still have
loads of Rose-breasted Grosbeaks. Still no Juncos, yet.
