Bristol area Birders,
97 species was the total at the end of the International Migratory Bird Day
in Buchanan County. 8 people participated, some like Ed & Michelle Talbott
birding for 14 hours straight.
The greatest find of the day definitely has to go to David Raines for his
find of a Swallow-tailed Kite that he sighted from the top of Bull Mountain
as it soared overhead.
Saturday must have been David's day as he also found a Little Blue Heron in
a marshy area at the western base of Bull Mountain, just a couple of miles
from the Breaks Interstate Park.
Everyone found good birds,and the complete list follows for those
interested.
Enjoy the birds,
