Moss Island WMA
Dyer County
6/7/14

For the first time, I was able to do some serious West TN birding this morning. 
After consulting eBird, I determined my best bet for good birds in Dyer County 
would be Moss Island, so I spent a few hours there. Didn't see anything too 
noteworthy, but I was able to add Least Tern to my state list, and I was amazed 
at the numbers of Acadian Flycatchers, Prothonotary Warblers, & Dickcissels.
