Hey all, Andrew Baldelli, Ken Lipshy, Pete Peterman, and Bill Williams joined 
me this morning to walk the beach at Grandview Preserve for the Newport News 
CBC.  Although fewer shorebirds and waterfowl present than most years, we had a 
few highlights, including the continuing Snow Bunting that flushed from the 
dune at Northend Point out to a rock jetty, a Parasitic Jaeger harassing 
Bonaparte's Gulls in the Bay, and at least 1 Cave Swallow foraging over the 
marsh just south of Northend Point.  Best,
 
Nick Flanders
Portsmouth, VA
