Sally Wechsler led a group of eleven on this morning's walk. The river
remains rapid to overflowing because of recent rains and/or perhaps releases
from the reservoir on the VA/West VA border. Thus waterfowl was largely
absent from the river but near the end of the walk a cooperative Horned
Grebe appeared close to the shore. [
We meet each Sunday at 8 AM at the visitors' center and all birders are
invited to join in. The list follows.
