It was an amazing day of birding for our field trip up on the Blue Ridge Parkway and adjacent Route 610. Attendance was sparse, no doubt reflecting the cloudy and chilly weather, but conditions improved later on. Some highlight species included: Hooded Warbler, Yellow-throated Vireo, White-eyed Vireo, Wood Thrush, Cerulean Warbler (pictured here by Andrew), American Redstart, Indigo Bunting, Brown Thrasher, Broad-winged Hawk, and Blue-headed Vireo. Thanks to Marilyn and her daughter and friend, Tom, Lynne, and Chris for joining us! –Andrew Clem
