Thanks Troy, for letting everyone know.  I guess I just missed them again.
I didn't think they would be travelling this fast.  On their trip south they
flew right over Pickett County and was seen by one lady who knew what they
were, but that lady was not me!
We heard what sounded like an unltralite go over about 10:15 a.m. today, but
they are not supposed to be associated in any way with the return trip, are
they?
Maybe some day I'll be lucky and spot them going or coming.

> The Whooping Cranes entered Tennessee yesterday.  The group of cranes flew
for 6 ½ hours, at which time one bird dropped out as the other four
continued for another 1 ½ hours.  The lone bird spent the night in McMinn
County, while the other four spent the night in Fentress County.

> David Aborn from the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga, reported this
morning that weather looks good for flying all week, so the birds will
likely be out of Tennessee today, and may already be well on their way.
