Birders,

Yesterday morning, Rosemarie and I birded Shenandoah Mountain in 
Rockingham County, Rt. 924 and FS 85.
No luck with Canada Warbler, the objective of our trip, nor did we see 
or hear Red Crossbills.  However, on the west side of the mountain in 
WV, we observed two Black-billed Cuckoos eating caterpillars in a Wild 
Cherry Tree and displaying very amorous behavior.

Other birds of note were Blackburnian, Black-throated Green, Black and 
White, Chestnut-sided, Yellow-rumps, Black-throated Blue, Hooded, 
Worm-eating, Ovenbird, LA Waterthrush, Cerulian WARBLERS.  Also close 
up view of Rose-breasted Grosbeak and heard a Veery and Woodthrushes.
