While this may be technically true, this area is covered by the Dyke Marsh bird checklist, which lists all the birds and their relative abundance from Hunting Creek in the North to the end of the marsh in the South. This area is also included in the Breeding Bird Survey that has been being conducted at Dyke Marsh for decades. And this area is the meeting spot for the Sunday morning walks at Dyke Marsh (every Sunday, 8:00 AM). Cheers, Todd Day BlkVulture@aol.com Jeffersonton, VA
