A very pleasant morning for a visit to Bear Creek Lake SP. The water level was
fully restored from when I was last here about a month ago. There were a
number of interesting neotropical species - BROAD-WNGED HAWK, MAGNOLIA WARBLER,
BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER, BLACKPOLL WARBLER as well as a well-seen male
PROTHONOTARY WARBLER and my FOS HOODED WARBLER.
According to the Birds of Virginia's South-Central Piedmont Checklist, there
are no records for Magnolia and Blackpoll in Cumberland County.
