Greetings,
Fifteen people joined leaders Joanne and David Bauer for this morning's walk
along the Lower Glade Stream Valley in Reston (Fairfax County). The walk was
co-sponsored by Reston Association, The Bird Feeder, and Audubon Society of
Northern Virginia.
Much of the trail is shaded, and that made the walk on this warm and humid day
tolerable. A highlight was finding first a singing and feeding Acadian
Flycatcher and then a singing and feeding Red-eyed Vireo.
