KCGC is the King Carter Golf Course, located south of Kilmarnock just off
Irvington Road.  HQ is Hills Quarter, the community associated with the
golf course.  NNAS is the Northern Neck Audubon Society.

A quick check of the trail, today; only 6 locations still active.  The
suspect nest of 2 eggs was still abandoned so it was removed.  And the
first box to harbor a third brood fledged its young this week.  A second
box is working on a third brood.  Third clutches have been relatively rare,
this season.  And this has been reported by other trails, also.

Eggs:  1, which may hatch today.  Mates had just hatched.
Young:  10 in 3 boxes.
Fledged: 4.
Other: The last tree swallow has fledged.
Chickadees fledged for the season: 10
Tree swallows fledged 7.
Bluebirds fledged: 204!!!!!!!!!
