Birders,
This is from nearby Silver Spring, MD but thought it'd be of interest since
we're located so close to VA as the crow flies.
This morning at my small water bath, with a large flock of house finches, was
an adult male WHITE-WINGED CROSSBILL. It stayed for 1-2 minutes and then was
off as an immature COOPER'S HAWK began patroling the yard. If the crossbill
returns or becomes reliable here, I'll let you know.

"There are some who can live without wild things, and some who cannot...like
winds and sunsets, wild things were taken for granted until progress began to
do away with them. Now we face the question whether a still higher 'standard of
living' is worth its cost in things natural, wild, and free. For us of the
minority, the opportunity to see geese is more important than television, and
the chance to find a pasque-flower is a right as inalienable as free speech."
Aldo Leopold (who else?)
