Dave Boltz, Phil Silas and I spent the morning looking for birds on the
Hike-Bike path at Huntley Meadows. We ran into Gerry Hawkins about midway thru
the walk and our group expanded to 4.
We were able to tally 10 species of warblers... brushy edge near the first
Woodcock meadow was active early on and Gerry had BLUE WINGED WARB on his way
in and we were able to pick up two again on our way out.
NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH was near the platform where the gravel road branches off
the paved path.
BLUE HEADED VIREO was in meadow to the left of platform going out.
PROTHONOTARY WARB was found near the water control platform.
GC FLYCATCHER was working over the road to the maint. bldg.
Complete list follows.
