Everyone is invited to join the regular (every 2nd Sat.) monthly bird walk at
the Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve in central Loudoun County this Sat., March 9,
meeting at 8:00 am in the parking lot at the Visitor Center/Manor House. These
bird walks are sponsored by the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy
(www.loudounwildlife.org) and the Friends of Banshee Reeks
(www.bansheereeks.org).
We hold the walk, regardless of the weather, unless it is dangerous but don't
expect a lot of participants if the weather is lousy.
Information and directions for Banshee Reeks, which is open every weekend from
8 am to 4 pm, can be found at www.bansheereeks.org.
Information on the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy's many free programs and field
trips can be found at www.loudounwildlife.org.
Thanks, Joe Coleman

visit in Northern Virginia during the Virginia Society of Ornithology's Annual
Conference from April 26 - 28. In addition to great field trips each day,

Birds, will be the banquet speaker on Sat. night. On Friday night there will be
