Furthering the documentation of the RNGR invasion.
This afternoon I counted 23 Red-necked Grebes on Swift Creek Reservoir in
Chesterfield County. A remarkable count for the Richmond area. Or maybe
not so remarkable this year.
Combine that with Paul Glass' report of 23 (the same 23?.. ha!) at one
location on Kerr Reservoir this morning and Mike Stinson's recent counts at
Sandy Reservoir, 38 birds on the 6th, and that makes 3 water bodies within
the Piedmont holding ridiculous RNGR counts.
It's a reservoir thing. That's some kind of record, right?
Good birds in general at Swift Creek today.
