SUMMARY:Field Trip to Machicomoco State Park in Gloucester
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, March 15\, we’ll visit Machicomoco State Park in Gloucester  County for a morning of birding.  Deborah Humphries will lead us through the different habitats at the park\, with viewing spots along the York River as well as fields and forests.  I look forward to seeing the myriad Field Sparrows at the park\, but there’s more!  The fields can also attract shorebirds\, and both Dunlin and Black-bellied Plover have been recorded at the park in the past week.  Ospreys?  We expect to see several\, and some might be carrying material to freshen up last year’s nest. \nWe’ll meet at the parking lot just past the entrance at 8 a.m.  The address for the park is 3601 Timberneck Farm Rd\, Hayes\, VA 23072.  If you’d like to carpool\, or you are willing to drive others\, please let me know at grm0803@gmail.com .  Carpoolers should meet at the Colony Square Shopping Center a little after 7 a.m. for departure by 7:15 a.m.   \nIf you have a state park pass\, bring that.  The entrance fee for those without passes is $5 per vehicle.

SUMMARY:Field Trip Along York River
DESCRIPTION:Rexanne Bruno will lead us at various sites along the York River.  In the past\, this trip has provided an opportunity to see several winter resident species\, including Tundra Swan\, Bonaparte’s Gull\, an occasional Clapper Rail\, and several deep-water ducks.  The fields around the Yorktown Battlefield also are good habitat for Eastern Meadowlark and American Kestrel. \nWe’ll meet in the parking lot of the Target at Marquis Parkway at 8 a.m.\, where we can consolidate cars for the morning.  The entrance to the parkway at the end of Rt 199 is closed\, so we’ll start by driving to Yorktown\, entering the parkway there\, and driving to Felgates Creek for our first stop.  We’ll then bird the sites on the way back to Yorktown Battlefield and the beach as we have in previous years.   And those getting hungry can meet for lunch at the Yorktown Diner after birding. \nHappy birding!

SUMMARY:Field Trip to Dutch Gap
DESCRIPTION:The Williamsburg Bird Club field trip to Dutch Gap Conservation Area is scheduled for next Saturday\, January 18.  We’ll meet in the parking area for the Henricus Historical Park at 9 a.m.  Rose Ryan will then lead our group around the impoundment area\, where there are usually large numbers of wintering ducks.  There’s been only one checklist posted to eBird since my note last weekend\, so I [George Martin] don’t have an update on the species present.  I plan to check out the park this week to make sure there’s still open water.  Based on our experience last year\, I expect there will be plenty of ducks even though some cold weather is forecast tor this week. \nThe current weather forecast calls for seasonal conditions – a little chilly at the start\, but warming.  I don’t think we’ll have to worry about ice cover on the impoundment.\n\nThe address for the park is 251 Henricus Park Road\, Chester\, VA 23836.  I won’t be arranging car pools for this field trip\, but please join up with other interested people to share rides.
