Monday's Huntley Meadows Monday Morning Birdwalk report cited the
Virginia Rail family reported by many others as well. I said that I would
check Huntley records for any previous occurrence of breeding Virginia Rails
in the Park. According to records that date back to the early 1980s, this
is the first sighting of breeding Virginia Rails at Huntley Meadows.
The Monday Morning birdwalk has been a weekly event at Huntley Meadows
since 1985. It takes place every week, rain or shine, at 7 AM, is free of
charge, requires no reservation, and is open to all. Birders meet in the
parking lot at the Park's entrance at 3701 Lockheed Blvd, Alexandria, VA.
For questions call the Park during normal business hours at (703) 768-2525.
