Greetings,
Even though we got a bit of a late start this morning, we had a productive
morning (9-11 a.m. or so) around the meadow at Riverbend Park, Fairfax County,
VA and along a portion of the trail from Riverbend to Great Falls NP. All in
all a good morning. Park staff have mowed a new path into a previously
unaccessible area just east of the main meadow. That was where we saw most of
our warbler activity.
