Minutes ago, I observed and photographed the *Virginia's Warbler* found by Eric Miller on October 31st and subsequently enlisted the help of Tom Burke and Shai Mitra to help in making sure I had it right. It's GOOD!!!!
The bird was working its way north from the original location where it was first reported *(see Steve Walter earlier posts from October for directions and ideas on where one should enter the park from)* and was last seen near the green shipping containers. This is an area not far from the challenge course. I first heard a soft chip note on the trail heading north towards the shipping containers and then found the bird. Note, the trail I am referring to has a weather station apparatus attached to a tree. The bird was moving around a lot, so the area should be canvassed and searched thoroughly. Great find by Eric and I am ecstatic that we now have supporting documentation. I'll have photos on my blog later today. Good Birding!
