At the Turkey Creek Wetland Park & Greenway in west Knox County this morning I 
found a flock of 20 Rusty Blackbirds.  They were perched in a tree near the 
start of the chip trail just west of McDonald's.  I got very close to them 
before they all flew to the south (just after I took out my camera to 
photograph them.  Darn it!)  Two first winter White-crowned Sparrows were 
foraging along the paved path amongst a bunch of Song Sparrows.  And a 
beautiful adult Red-shouldered Hawk was seen several times flying low overhead.
