[va-richmond-general] Henricus/Dutch Gap 11/28

Tina Trice and I spent some time this morning exploring the wetland at Henricus 
Park and a portion of the Dutch Gap Trail in Chesterfield County.  Highlights 
included a male COMMON YELLOWTHROAT along the entrance road, 4 PALM WARBLERS in 
the marsh, a male NORTHERN PINTAIL with a group of RING-NECKED DUCKS in the 
Dominion flyash pond and at least 1 OSPREY.  A second Osprey seen may have been 
a duplicate sighting.  I've attached an e-bird list below.  Good birding.
