Hey Wallace,
Dianne Draper and I were at Musick's about an hour after you were there.
We saw the 3 Black Terns, plus a Caspian Tern (both TN & VA). Also, there were
a total of 4 Great Egrets, 6 Black-crowned Night-Herons, a Green Heron, 2 Wood
Ducks, and a Spotted Sandpiper (all TN). You must have been chumming !-) All
we had to do was pull up a chair for what I like to call the Evening Show at
Musick's.
