Just got back from riding down to Poquoson. Got some great looks (and pictures) of 3 Clapper Rails and 2 Snowy Egrets. Found them next to the boat dock parking lot (on Messick Rd.) on the left side. It was low tide.. so they were out feeding in full view. Lots of fun watching such secretive birds.
Pics are here..

Later, while eating lunch in the car at a Wendy's. I thought there was a hungry stray kitten, which turned out to be a Catbird in a tree next to the car. Had me fooled!

Stay cool and happy birding...
