      I made a quick trip to Richmond to attend a family funeral and 
stayed, as always, with my mother out near Tuckahoe Creek just inside 
the county line.  She had, in addition to the regulars, a male indigo 
bunting visiting her feeders.  This morning I heard a wood thrush 
singing, probably in the woods along the creek, and, much to my 
surprise, I heard, very clearly, a fish crow.
      I hear fish crows regularly 9 to 10 months a year here in 
Fayetteville, so I'm thoroughly familiar with their calls.  However, 
this was my first one in the Richmond area.  How common are they 
along the James and its tributaries in the Greater Richmond area?
