Dear VA BirdersThe fact that the properties at King George ponds are private
property was lost from the email thread so I thought I should bring it to
everyone's attention again.
LaGrange Lane is a public road and there is no problem viewing the birds in the
ponds there as long as you stay on the road itself. Going onto the grass is
trespassing and we have had requests from the landowners to stay on the road.
Farley Vale farm and Farley Vale Drive are also private property. They also own
the adjacent land that was quarried by Aggregate Industries. I just got an
email from the landowners with this gentle reminder: " I think it would be nice
to remind them that it is private property and they need to stay on the lane
and close to the highway" The Farley Vale family is generous in allowing this
access. So you may look from the beginning of the driveway near route 3 but
please stay on the drive and do not wander down the drive. This also would
apply to the Aggregate Industries gate.
If you hear of others going to visit these areas please remind them about this.
Please also post this on the Birding Virginia Facebook page.
Thank you very muchFred AtwoodVSO's Virginia Birds East Region Compiler
