On our last visit to Reelfoot Lake, we spotted a number of coots swimming close to the water’s edge, foraging for food. On that day, they were pulling aquatic plants and small fish from the shallow waters.

The Pavarotti quote is a classic!
I’ll bet those coots weren’t going to share this dining venue with anyone else either! That’s a great quote by Mr. Pavarotti who was known for his love of food.
Thanks, Linda! They looked like they were definitely enjoying themselves.
