There were around twenty scoters at Yorktown Beach this morning. They were all
surf scoters, as far as I could tell. I thought one was a black, but then I
lost him. I also saw a single dunlin at Indian Fields creek on the mud flats
where about a dozen tundra swans were hanging out. Along the Colonial Parkway
were dozens of killdeer, water pipets, fox sparrows, cardinals, towhees to name
a few. Also saw two brown thrashers. On the road was one sharp-shinned
standing on a dark, small bird, presumably a junco. These are just the
highlights of a wonderful morning birding from Jamestown to Yorktown and back
along the parkway.
