Well, I headed out late last night and drove to Reelfoot Lake against my better
school judgement. I should have been studying but instead I studied on the way
there (safe, huh!).
Anyway, at about 7:00am I was looking for the Murrelet and found a female
Long-tailed Duck. It was first seen from the boardwalk behind Reelfoot State
Park and we saw it throughout the day from Bo's Landing working the group of
trees out in the middle of the water and in the cove there at the Landing at
the same place where the Murrelet was seen the day before.
So, the bad news is that we searched all day long and didn't see the Murrelet.
We did see a bird that had a high possibility of the Murrelet but we cannot be
sure as the three of us that saw the bird at different times did not get a good
enough look to I.D. the bird. So, it may or may not still be there. Good luck
if you go looking for it, I hope it's still out there somewhere.
