Nice morning yesterday at Monticello park in Alexandria. Unless I've missed
them, I don't remember seeing many posts from there this fall.

Only had about 90 minutes there. Not too long a list but some great warbler
close-ups, including a mid-air "fight" between a Hooded and a Black-throated
Blue about 15 feet from me.

My list:

Turkey Vulture
Red-shouldered Hawk
Downy Woodpecker
Red-bellied Woodpecker
Pileated Woodpecker (heard)
Red-eyed Vireo
Blue Jay
American Crow
Tufted Titmouse
Carolina Chickadee
White-breasted Nuthatch
Carolina Wren
Thrush (prob. Swainson's, but it was too dark to see for sure...)

Northern Mockingbird
Magnolia Warbler
Black-throated Blue Warbler
Black-throated Green Warbler
