Hello VA Birders,
From reading all of your post from the past week, seems like great looks were
had by many. Hope everyone is enjoying this holiday weekend and staying safe
too!
I thought I would quickly post, without counts, sightings from my recent visit
to the Outer Banks and nearby areas. I wanted to get this out as quickly as
possible in case some of you are planning a visit this week.
For some reason, I do not hear of sightings from this area, even when requested
via carolinabirds. So maybe this will be of use to you.
(No images from this trip are posted on my pay site yet. It will take a couple
of weeks as I still have editing from past trips. Thanks for visiting!)
Much thanks to Tom and Lynda Blair for the info on their trip to Mattamuskeet
