> A handful of birders turned out at sunrise today to make the trek from
Dutch
> Gap Boat Ramp through Henricus Park. Over 50 Black Vultures met us in the
> parking lot with equally as many fisherman. Temperatures were mild and
winds
> calm. The konk-a-ree of Redwings was a sure sign that spring is right
around
> the corner. We tallied approx. 44 species. A few highlights:
>
> American Wigeon
> Gadwall
> Green-winged Teal
> Wood Duck (male and female standing in a tree)
> Ring-necked Duck
> Northern Shoveler
> Red-shouldered Hawk
> Bald Eagle (2 immature)
> Eastern Bluebirds
> Ruby-crowned Kinglet
> Golden-crowned Kinglet
> Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
> Great-Blue Heron
> Great Egret
> ...and the usual expected crowd.

> Sadly, the woods seemed excessively littered with trash and the snag that
> housed the Barred Owls last year near the boardwalk is laying on the
ground.
