[va-bird] more woodies than mallards

["Christian Kessler" <northraven@xxxxxxx>]

played hookie today & went to Mason Neck, Julie Metz, & Leesylvania [for a 
bit].  saw some 14 Wood Duck at Mason Neck, mostly in pairs, and then another 4 
[at least -- saw more, but it was hard to be sure some weren't ducks that had 
bolted from a different pond earlier] at Julie Metz.  "only" got about 8 
Mallards.
entering Julie Metz, first saw a Pileated fly over, then saw a Fox Sparrow in 
the underbrush just across the trail, then saw a second Pileated fly after the 
first.  nice way to start.
