Chatters,
I have now loaded 16 photos taken of the large dark bird that was dropped in
on us by Hurricane Katrina. The bird appeared to eight of us late in the
afternoon on August 30, and was seen again by four of us the following morning.
The bird was immediately questioned by Jon Dunn who had joined us at this
marvelous and diverse fallout of birds at Pickwick Lake on the Tennessee River
in Hardin Co. Jon has settled on this being a Skua rather than the more
expected Pomarine Jaeger, pending these final photos.
Comments are welcomed, they can be sent to me directly or posted on the web
site. I will collect them and post them in total after a reasonable comment
period.
