[TN-Bird] Sabine's Gull still at Honker Bay

After seeing so many sightings of this bird reported I decided to make the 2 
hour drive from Sikeston, Missouri to see it for myself.  Got to the area about 
9:00....was joined about 9:30 or 10:00 by a couple of gentlemen from near 
Nashville, and an hour or so later bya couple from Murray, KY.  Finally at 
11:30 the Sabine's made an appearance.  It dove and reeled and put on quiet an 
aerobatic show, giving all great scope- and binocular-looks at it's beautiful 
patterns.
I'd like to thank the KY and TN bird lists, and Kevin Breault in particular, 
for the reports and the directions.  I am sure many posted specifics, but 
Kevin's were the first I saw and the ones I printed to take with me, and they 
were spot on perfect!

Lifer Number 398 for me!

Let's Go Birding!
