Field Trip to the Great Dismal Swamp
Colony Square Shopping Center1301 Jamestown Rd, Williamsburg, VA 23185On Saturday, April 20, fifteen birders from the club traveled to Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife
Refuge for a bird walk with Bob Ake. The heavy showers stopped just as the group arrived at the
parking area at the end of Jericho Lane. Bob then led the group on a walk along Jericho Ditch. Several
warblers were seen, many were heard. A few members of the group were able to catch a fleeting
glimpse of a Swainson’s Warbler as it flew from one well-camouflaged perch to another one even
deeper in the thickets. After the walk, several participants then drove to Lake Drummond, the largest
natural lake in Virginia, within the refuge. - 2727.April.Saturday
