I agree. This was a fun find. I went to see them at lunchtime today,
around 12:40, and got several good looks even without my binos. Also, in
the last half of my 20 minute visit, some of the boys started singing for
me.

Subject: [Va-bird] Thanks for posting Bobolinks at Gravelly Pt.
Starting with Val Kitchens, who found them, I want to extend a big "thank
you" to everyone who posted their subsequent sightings of these birds.
Since my first attempt to find them failed I thought they were gone, but I
finally saw the large flock on Sat. after a friend called to alert me to
that morning's sighting by Gerco Hoogeweg.
I watched them for over a half hour Sat. evening, starting around 7:30 pm.
