Folks,

*Quick Notes*
Great Dismal Swamp NWR (Washington Ditch) - 1:25 - 4:55 PM - FOY
Yellow-throated Warbler (Lifer!), FOY Common Yellowthroat, FOY Rusty
Blackbirds (about 50). Winds were very heavy so it was extremely tough to
locate any small birds, almost all songbirds seen were Yellow-rumped
Warblers. Also saw a Horned Grebe on the ditch, some Wood Ducks, Hooded
Mergansers, first snake of the year (racer/rat snake), first butterflies of
the year including Zebra Swallowtail, and several Muskrats.
