Drove down to Great Dismal Swamp today and in addition to birds reported by
Kurt Schroeder, I observed the following along Jericho Ditch.
Louisianna Waterthrush - 1
Hermit Thrush - 5
Veery
White-throated Sparrow - 1
(All of the above were in a loose group feeding along the road between the
main highway and BEORE reaching a large outdoor kennel housing hunting dogs).
Cooper's Hawk - adult male
Prairie Warbler - singing on territory
Great-crested Flycatcher
A quick stop to check the waterway at the Virginia Marine Science Museum (I
think that's the correct name) along General Booth Blvd. in Virginia Beach
yielded three Red-throated Loons, still in winter plumage. They were a
good distance away, close to the far shore but I managed to digiscope two
of them.
