I meant to respond to this earlier, but I've had a busy week.  I'm sorry I
didn't help out here -- I was on the Eastern Shore that weekend and did my
birding there Friday through Monday.  Hundreds of surf scoters were lining
the Bay Bridge Tunnel.  When I submitted the report Monday night, they were
the only ones listed for Virginia.  Had some Green-winged Teals in the creek
on our family farm too.

I sure hope somebody reported the falcons here.  They are visible on or near
the BB&T building almost every day.

Also, I had a fun time helping out at the Maymont Flower Show Saturday.  If
I'm available next year, I'd be glad to do it again.  Thanks to the
committee for putting together an outstanding exhibit!
