Ben,
We hope to have the updated annotated checklist of Virginia birds finished
by the VSO annual meeting next spring.

Yesterday (8/26) Diane Holsinger and I birded the
Pocosin Cabin Fire Road and the area around the Big
Meadows Visitor Center in Shenandoah National Park.
At approximately 11:30 we observed an alternate
plumaged male yellow-rumped warbler at Big Meadows
Visitor Center. The bird sang repeatedly from a group
of red spruce for the entire time we were in the area
(approx. 20 minutes), as if it were on territory. We
did not observe a female or see any other behavior
suggestive of nesting. In recent years, yellow-rumped
warblers have nested in a stand of balsam firs on
Shenandoah Mountain on the Rockingham Co.,
VA/Pendleton Co., WV line, but I am not aware of
breeding season records in the northern Blue Ridge
Mountains. Has anyone else noted yellow-rumped
warblers in this area this summer?
