On 4/9 a friend and I ventured to Algonkian park in Eastern Loudoun
County. Below is the count for our short walk along the river.
Highlights were a flock of Blue-winged Teal in the small pond by the
boat ramp parking lot, the Horned Grebe and possible FOS Pine Warblers.
After checking ebird, the earliest FOS Pine Warbler in this area is May
16th, 2002. However, there are photos at Flickr to confirm or
correct us.
