Things to Bring Along:

#1:  Be sure to dress warmly - bring more layers than you think you might need and wear gloves and something to cover your head and ears.  It will be at least 10-15 degrees colder and there can possibly be strong winds in the the Garden.  Remember Burke's Garden is the highest valley in Virginia.

#2:  Be sure to bring your binoculars to get a good looks at the bird species we may find.  If you have a spotting scope and tripod that would also be beneficial in locating birds of prey at a distance.

#3:  Bring a camera or your cell phone.  The Garden is very photogenic and you will want to take some pictures to remember your day. I will be snapping pictures during the day and will post them for everyone to download the next day.

#4:  This trip is involves stopping at different locations to scan for bird species and to take photographs.
