Dyke Marsh Bird Walk


Orchard Oriole, female; Dyke Marsh, Alexandria, VA. We got a good look at this lovely bird. A male orchard was nearby.
In addition to the birds shown below, we saw:
White-eyed vireo
warbling vireo
blue gray gnatcatcher
yellow rumped warbler
great blue heron
american coot
male orchard oriole
spotted sandpiper
double crested cormorant
cardinals
carolina wren
mourning dove
red belly woodpecker

the group also saw a baltimore oriole but I only got a flash of bright orange as it went behind a tree.Posted by Picasa
