Gerry Weinberger and I tried the ash pond from 8 - 8.45, with no luck. After Gerry left I headed over to the boardwalk and stopped on the bluff to look along the river. Three breeding plumage Black Terns flew purposefully down river. I tried returning to the ash pond in case they were there, but they weren't. I also tried the first overlook off the back trail (where the seat is), no luck, then back to the ash pond again, still no luck. I met Arun Bose returning from the second blind, he had not seen them at all. Wendy Ealding Chesterfield County You are subscribed to VA-Richmond-General.
