Waterfowl and Vultures

Yesterday (11-16-08) I make a quick trip to Rasor Farm in Carter
County TN (just outside Elizabethton), Little Wilbur, and Watauga Lake
at the Dam (also Carter County, TN).

Here is my list:

Rasor Farm:

Hooded Merganser 18
Green-winged Teal 6
Canada Goose +++
Mallard ++
Yellow-rumped Warbler

Bridge where you cross the river heading to Little Wilbur:

Lots more Canada Geese ++

Little Wilbur:

Buffleheads - ++

Watauga Lake: (from pull off just before the restrooms)

Raft of:
~45 Ring-neck Ducks
~5 Lesser Scaup

Also today (11-17-08) in Johnson City I had 109 Turkey Vultures come
off 2 big roosts on Tannery Knob (Washington County, TN). I watched
them gain altitude and then peel off towards Buffalo Mountain. I
assume they are still migrating??? There are a lot of Vultures on the
Iris Glen Landfill just down the road, but I don't remember seeing
that many.
