We were walking along the Clinch River and I noticed a Great Blue Heron nest, the bird appeared to be feeding chicks or maybe arranging sticks in the nest. Sorry for the shakiness but when you zoom in that far every little wiggle becomes a giant wobble.

Fauna Friday
Along the Clinch River by Norris Dam, you can often see Great Blue Herons. These big birds really are a sight when soaring through the air and wading in the waters on their long spindly legs. The other day, one flew right over our heads honking like a loud old goose - wish I could have captured that on video!
Here is one patiently fishing at the weir dam:
