THanks for the post Allen. My brother and dad were able to see. I still
remember when you helped me see a big fallout of warblers vireos and thrushes
at Big Levels a few years back.
Thanks for your posts

out the ponds in Augusta County & Willow Lake in Rockbridge County today to see
what waterfowl dropped in on this weather system . First Willow Lake in
Rockbridge . The Lake has a good assortment of Waterfowl today -- Canada Goose
, Black Swan , Gadwall , American Wigeon -- 7 , Mallard , green - winged Teal
-- 6 , Redhead -73+, Ring- necked Duck -- 55+, Lesser Scaup , Bufflehead ,
