[va-bird] Huntley Stilts

Took a quick stroll around the pond at Huntley Meadows - Alexandria - Fairfax 
Co. this morning...best birds were 3 Stilt Sandpipers foraging together about 
30 feet off the boardwalk (pond side) heading toward the tower past the 
boardwalk junction. One GW TEal cavorting w. some Mallards...nice morning but 
no 
raptors up...
Dyke Marsh trail remains closed...many trees down. Just heard that permission 
was given to rebuild the marina...pilings remain and that's about it. There 
is a movement afoot to coordinate a volunteer effort with NPS to see if we can 
get the trail open again. The boardwalk is in pieces but trees and garbage 
need to be taken care of in order to just get out to the boardwalk anyway...
