This morning, Tom Armour and I saw our first Northern Gannet ever at
College Creek Hawkwatch...likely a new James City County record and maybe
Surry
County....probably about 25 river miles from Hampton Roads. The dark, 1st
year bird cruised west up the James River and half an hour later returned
heading downriver in a rather confused-looking meandering way.
