All,
Birded around Rockhingham county this morning briefly stopping at local
ponds to check for Ducks, most of whom appeared to not appear. Pipits and
Osprey were both first for the year birds for me. Pipits and Snipe were seen
at pond across from Green Valley Books Auction. Vireos were seen at Madison
Run. I didn't catch the Louisanna Waterthrush that Greg mentioned in
previous post but I ran out of time and did not get to hike far at all.
There is an interesting wetlands nearby on the road leading into Madison Run
but though it looked inviting with catails and lilly pads I didn't see
anything other than a few Red-winged Blackbirds and some Downy woodpeckers.
William
