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.
