Had a good afternoon canoeing around Mt. Island Lake here near
Charlotte. Watched a male Osprey mob a 3 or 4 yr old Bald Eagle and
then after the eagle left, return to his nest HIGH atop a high
tension tower where he joined his female for a reward for his bravery.
Then had a gorgeous Caspian Tern feeding in the lake. Don't remember
hearing many mentions of this bird this far inland.
