Area Birders, Yesterday, 7/20, while doing my weekly check of the bluebird trail on the Mountain Top Golf Course here on Compton Mountain, I found a first year female BLACKBURNIAN WARBLER. This is the earliest date we have so far of post breeding dispersal here in Buchanan County. Previously, the earliest recorded dispersal date for this species within the county was 7/31. The 27 nest boxes of the bluebird trail have housed 75 fledglings so far this season. Enjoy the birds, Roger Mayhorn Grundy, VA Buchanan County VA
