Hi All,

Jan Shaw, Phillip Casteel and I journeyed to west Tn. this
morning with hopes of seeing the Reeve (aka Ruff) at the 
pits and the Anhinga at Eagle Lake.

We met Jeff Wilson at the pits and, as usual, he put us
right on the bird. We had great looks up close and all three
of us got this beauty on video. Thank you, Jeff.

There are plenty of other birds to marvel at here. My 
personal favorite would be Black-necked Stilt. These lovely
birds and their fuzz ball chicks were everywhere.

The Eagle Lake part of our trip did not produce our target
bird, but we did see three Mississippi Kites and four 
species of waders.

A memorable trip.
