It was a nice day for a visit to Weyanoke. Woody Woodard, Susan Hubbard, Nancy
Milner, and Vel McCarty joined me for the bird walk this morning. It started
off as a quiet morning, but by the creek, there was a lot of activity in a few
of the hackberry trees. Most of the warblers were by the creek, and I was
surprised to see as many warbler species as we did. Pine Warblers were probably
around too, but we never found one. Many new plants have been added to the
property (azaleas and viburnums mostly), and the indian pipes can be found in
the woods. While leaving the sanctuary, I thought I heard a Winter Wren, but it
called only once, so I am not certain. Complete list of birds seen is included
below.
