This afternoon I saw four so-called "Least Terns" ( Sterna antillarum ) hovering near the cypress trees of Horn Lake, just over the stateline in northern Mississippi. It's a fresh water lake. http://topozone.com/map.asp?z=15&n=3874211&e=758627 I thought I had been beamed suddenly to the Gulf coast. The Terns were hovering near the boat ramp, then dove suddenly into the water to catch fish. Made me want to go to a seafood restaurant that evening. Robert Fowler... Memphis TN...
