On Saturday, September 6 the Rockbridge Bird Club held its first monthly bird walk at the Boxerwood Nature Center and Woodland Gardens (www.boxerwood.org). The joint event will take place in the future on the first Saturday of each month. Today, a group of 10 birders saw a total of 31 species with the highlight being a Blue Winged Warbler and a calling nearby Eastern Screech Owl. Several feeding flocks provided additional warblers as migration begins. The Gardens are open to the public daily. The detailed bird list is below:
