This list is a little late, sorry. On 3/10, i had a chance to bird near Elko in 
Henrico county along white oak swamp. 
Weather was sunny, and in the upper 50's.

turkey vul- 1
Yellow rumps- 21+ they were all stationed on small trees located in standing 
water or on adjacent vegetation, they would flutter out from the tree and then 
back again. They were all over a certain section. Maybe a certain insect was 
hatching. It was very cool to see so many yellow rumps feeding?in this large 
concentration. Many more than 21 !!!
