[va-bird] Scoters at Yorktown Beach

There were around twenty scoters at Yorktown Beach this morning.  They were all 
 surf scoters, as far as I could tell.  I thought one was a black, but then I 
lost him.  I also saw a single dunlin at Indian Fields creek on the mud flats 
where about a dozen tundra swans were hanging out.  Along the Colonial Parkway 
were dozens of killdeer, water pipets, fox sparrows, cardinals, towhees to name 
a few.  Also saw two brown thrashers.  On the road was one sharp-shinned 
standing on a dark, small bird, presumably a junco.  These are just the 
highlights of a wonderful morning birding from Jamestown to Yorktown and back 
along the parkway.
