Highlight of this morning's Richmond Audubon field trip to Belmead in Powhatan was a white-lored (Dendroica dominica albilora ssp.) Yellow-throated Warbler which fed on the ground enabling us to get great looks at the loral color until a highly territorial Acadian Flycatcher drove it off. According to the Gold Book, D.d.albilora is unusual in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain. We also added a new species to the checklist for the property - Barred Owl. One was possibly seen flying along Deep Creek as we drove in, and we definitely heard a distant one calling from the River Trail.
