I was scheduled to bird the CBBT again over the weekend of January 28-29, but the weather has remained extremely mild. The sea ducks just aren't down to VA in large numbers yet, and I am hopeful that the next few weeks will bring some colder temperatures. Instead of making the trip to the CBBT, I did some brief birding around the Richmond area, and was able to pick up a few year birds, including 4 Redheads around the Curles Neck Farm area.
Although the forecast doesn't show much of a change in this coming week (70's on Thursday!), I am heading down to the CBBT on Saturday with the Monticello Bird Club. We are scheduled to bird the CBBT until around noon, and then a group of us are heading up to Chincoteague for rest of the day.
Although a "year" seems like a long period of time to find birds in the state, I am running out of time to make the trip to Highland County to search out Golden Eagles and Rough-legged Hawks.
I plan on having a productive week. Stay tuned.
