[va-bird] NVBC/Sky Meadows

The Sky Meadows Seven met for a Saturday AM NorthernVirginiaBirdClub walk, 
led by Bob Klarquist and myself.  While the weather sure did seem unlikely to 
cooperate ( we had a steady drizzle for the first hour or so) - we received our 
weekly allotment of sun and clouds and so were able to do the bridle trail 
loop in favorable - albeit breezy - conditions. Seemed like an ordinary day at 
Sky Meadows with Ravens, RedHeaded WP's, all the mimics, four sparrow sps and a 
few warblers mixed in...the group tallied 56 species overall...for more info
