Trout lilies are in bloom at the Wetlands in the area between the boardwalk
and Pleasants Creek up close to the houses.

Chester sightings

 


While checking out some kayaking launch sites along the Nottoway on Saturday
the Yellow-throated warblers were singing literally everywhere. One tree had
2 Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers and a Yellow-throated warbler at the same time.
Three Great Egrets were seen near Purdy.

 

In Chester I kicked up about 5 Snipe behind our house later Sat. afternoon
and also watched a Greater Yellowlegs working the swamp. Chickadees have an
almost completed nest in one of our Bluebird Boxes, a Female Wood Duck is
sitting tight in one of our boxes and the Brown-headed Nuthatches continue
to feast on Safflower.

 

Enjoy the spring!
