I was birding in Leesylvania the same time as Marc's group, and was totally
skunked on warblers until I stopped at the Powell Creek Trail parking lot on my
way out (~10:45). I found a N. Parula and a Tennessee Warbler, hanging out with
some Robins and Bluebirds in the mulch area across the street. I then stopped
at the main office and finally found a decent mixed flock at the beginning of
the road back to the maintenance sheds, which included Black-throated Green,
Chestnut-sided (2), N. Parula (2), and Black-and-White Warblers.

Subject: [VA-bird] Leesylvania migrants
The Audubon of Northern Virginia's "Identifying Fall Warblers" class held its
field trip at Leesylvania State Park this morning. As has been the pattern
this past few weeks migrants were hard to come by. We did have some luck
around the overflow parking lot, where we saw black-and-white, chestnut-sided,
blackburnian, and yellow-throated warblers and northern parula. Also in this
spot were scarlet tanager, yellow-billed cuckoo, red-eyed vireos, and 2
Baltimore orioles. We saw a yellow warbler at the camping area, which
completed our warbler list.
