[va-bird] Leesylvania, 9/30

Jason Waanders and I did not experience the riches of Occoquan, but we had a
nice morning.  Dominant warblers were parulas, at least a dozen, some
singing.  Best birds were red-headed woodpecker, chat, and a preview of late
fall (BH vireo, yellow-rump, and kinglets).  Other goodies:

 

Kestrel 4 (well, they could have been merlins, but we didn't see them well
as they migrated overhead)

Red-headed 1 (immature) (6 woodpecker day)
