Bird watching at sunset on the Tennessee River (Lake Nickajack)

We are lucky to have friends who are avid bird watchers. Their favorite place to see eagles, double-crested cormorants and herons is on Pryors Island, near Bennett Lake on the Tennessee River (Daymark 433, just before the stretch of river known as the "Grand Canyon of the Tennessee." Amazing scenery and wildlife await as you navigate the twists and turns of the Tennessee River into Chattanooga. To learn more about the abundance of wildlife on the river, check out the TWRA website. 

We have had the pleasure to go bird watching with our friends many a time. Last Saturday was a perfect spring day, and after dinner, we went out for a sunset cruise. Armed with a new phone, I was able to get some good shots of the pretty sky and birds. 

Just passed Bennett Lake (from a previous cruise one summer)

I was very pleased with the results. Your thoughts?
