VA Birders,
Today, my wife,Lynda, and I birded several areas here in Buchanan Co.
looking for spring migrants. Our best finds were a Black-throated Green
Warbler, a Palm Warbler, a few Black-and-Whites and a few Yellow-throated
Warblers. We also got great looks at three Broad-winged Hawks, one of which
kept wheeling and turning just overhead while giving his whistling call. The
complete list is as follows:
Palm Warbler 1
