[va-richmond-general] Great Blue Heron Days - BIRDS

Fantastic morning of birding at Henricus/Dutch Gap this morning.  We had
new & experienced birders and something for everyone to see and hear. 
The list below doesn't include what the bird banders were finding further
out the trail.  So any additions to the GBH Days list are welcome.  Let
