President’s Message
Lewis Barnett
W
inter has arrived in Central Virginia,
after a relatively mild and wet autumn.
Recent weather has made hunkering down
with extra layers of clothes, a nice cup of
coffee and a warm fire seem very appealing,
but let me suggest that you not give in to
those urges – our area has a wealth of winter
birding opportunities. Last winter, we had an
extraordinary collection of waterfowl wintering on the James within the Richmond city limits, including relatively
rare visitors like Canvasbacks, Common Goldeneye and White-winged
Scoter, along with large flocks of our usual winter guests like Bufflehead
and Ring-necked Ducks. There is no guarantee of a repeat this year, but
the river is still beautiful even in the cold, and it’s fun to check the flocks
for that potential rare find. Riverside Drive from Huguenot Flatwater to
Pony Pasture is a prime area, though the ducks can be found anywhere
along the river. The marsh at Dutch Gap is also a great place to find wintering ducks. Let us also not forget our other numerous winter visitors,
the gulls. The area around the Falls of the James downtown is a hotspot
for gulls, with diligent observers regularly finding unusual birds among
the flocks. And, though activity in the woods may be at a lower ebb than
at other times of year, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Kinglets, Juncos and
Creepers can still put on a lively show. So, bundle up (the right gear is
everything this time of year) and get outside – and be sure to tell us all
what you see on the Richmond Audubon email list!
Best wishes to you all for a happy and safe New Year!
Famed Hog Island Audubon
Camp Reopens
Lynn Tennefoss,Vice President, State Programs and Chapter Services
The National Audubon Society will reopen its legendary Hog Island
camp for four adult ornithology sessions and one teen bird studies
session during the summer of 2010. Dr. Steve Kress, Audubon’s VP for
Bird Conservation, will direct the sessions. He will be joined by some
of the country’s top ornithologists who will serve as instructors, including Kenn Kaufman, Pete Dunne, and Scott Weidensaul. Additionally,
said Dr. Kress, there will be two new sessions offered in association
with Exploritas (formerly Elder Hostel) http://www.exploritas.org/
Programs/search_res.asp?Type=A&StateCode=ME
where June participants will assist Project Puffin biologists to census
gulls, eiders and cormorants at several nearby seabird nesting islands.

November Silent Auction
and Potluck Dinner
Margaret O’Bryan, co-chair.
The November Silent Auction and Potluck Dinner was a huge success.
Thanks are owed to so many people­—those who donated items, brought
such delicious food, purchased raffle tickets, donated money to the
fund drive, set up tables, made flower arrangements, bought auction
items, cleaned up after it was all over, and helped in so many ways.
I think a good time was had by all, and the talented Kim Harrell’s
wonderful program on “How to Be a Raptor” was both informative and
hilarious. A special thank you to John and Caroline Coe, our hawk and
owl, for being such good sports.
Funds are still coming in, and in the next issue of the Thrasher we
will present a report on how much money was raised.
Hope you will all be ready to pitch in again next year when we do it
all again.

the Audubon Camp in Maine, Hog
Island was closed during the summer of 2009 to permit planning for
the future. This process led to Project Puffin bringing back the popular
ornithology programs for adults and teens. The adult programs are for
both beginner and avid birders who would like to learn more about
Maine birdlife and the biology of birds. The teen session is for 14-17
year olds with a keen interest in birds. (This session is co-sponsored
by the American Birding Association.) Due to its varied habitats, Hog
Island and vicinity are an ideal setting for the program, as more than
300 species frequent the area.
Participants live in authentic, turn of the century housing on the
330 acre spruce-covered island. Here, they will enjoy three superb
home-cooked meals by renowned chef Janii Laberge. The meals are
served in an historic island farmhouse that overlooks Muscongus Bay.
During the five-day sessions, small field groups will go on a variety of
trips and boat cruises, and attend presentations on topics ranging from
migration, and the identification of warblers, to the restoration
of Atlantic Puffins and three species of terns on nearby Eastern Egg
Rock. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about bird
banding, sound recording, and bird photography from leaders in

Notes from the James
River Park System
Ralph White, Park Manager, James River Park System
The Earth
Smiles in
Flowers
The low
islands and
flat flood plain
along the
James in Richmond is dense
with vegetation. The soil
© Friends of The James River Park
is replenished
yearly with the rich dirt and nutrients washed in from
the farms and forests up stream during floods. It was
once rich with native wildflowers. But many were
taken away by visitors when the park was first opened
in 1972.
On the first Saturday in November, eight adult
volunteers (University of Richmond, Audubon,
Sierra Club, Friends of the JRP, VNPS and the
general public) planted the root stock of 800 Virginia
Blue Bells at the Pony Pasture Rapids section of the
JRPS; the day before, over 75 girls from St Catherine’s
Middle School planted 200 at The Wetlands.
Ernie Wilson, representing the Virginia Native
Plant Society, underwrote the first $500 of the expenses and got the project going. Richmond Audubon
covered the next $400 and thereby assured that the
park manager would not be hauled off to debtor’s
prison for unpaid VISA expenses. And the First
Unitarian Church of Richmond covered the last $200
and completed the project. Next Spring there should
be a little more joy and happiness for the butterflies,
beetles and wildflower watchers along the river. You
are invited to be one of them.
It is intended that a similar planting will occur
next year along Pleasant Creek and on the islands
opposite Reedy Creek. Contact the park if you would
like to be a participant call 646-8911.
Lumpkin’s Slave Jail Archeological Site
Richmond was the economic and transportation
center for the gathering and re-sale of slaves for the 40
years leading up to the Civil War. At its peak, in 1854,
over 10,000 people were shipped out in single month.
The largest and worst of the slave holding facilities
was Lumpkin’s Jail—The Devil’s Half Acre—located
near 15th and Franklin St. in what is now the parking
lot for Main Street Station.
It is also now the site of the most important
archeological study of slavery in America today... but
the work has temporarily halted awaiting funding for
the next phase of work. And then area was back-filled
and abandoned in April.
To give the site the dignity it deserves, upgrade
its appearance and present the information that has
already been found out, a work project was set up by
the JRPS on the 3rd Saturday in November. Volunteers from Hands-On Greater Richmond, First Contractors, the University of Richmond, and the general
public graded out the rough earth at the dig, covered
it all with wood chips, marked out the old fence line
of the jail complex, and erected the outline of the
front of the jail itself. An interpretive sign describing
the findings of the dig and showing the overall lay out
of the site was funded by the First Unitarian Church
of Richmond.
You are invited to come down and have a look
at this important – and long forgotten – part of our
city’s history. Oh, and a little more work remains—the
framework needs to be painted and the boundary
lines markings up-graded from tape to a law wooden
railing... and there is always a little general maintenance. You are welcome to participate in that as well.
Call 646-8911.
Coyote Incursion
The body of a healthy adult coyote was found
along Riverside Drive in Richmond near the
Huguenot Bridge by Casey Winters and Arun Bose
on Thanksgiving Day. It had been apparently hit by
a car. It is interesting to note that two years prior
the tracks and scat of a coyote were photographed
at Powhite Park about this same time. Coyotes have
been more frequently sited in Henrico and Chesterfield, but it is reasonable to assume they will become
a relatively benign part of the urban environment
here too—just as they have in many other cities
across the nation.

Sponsored by Dominion Resources. Presented by the National Audubon Society’s Virginia Important
Bird Areas Program, and in cooperation with Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden.
“Why is it,” Dr. Shepard Krech, III, asks “that our most persistent visual image of the indigenous people
of the New World is that they were feathered?” In Dr. Krech’s book, Spirits of the Air: Birds and American
Indians in the South, he assesses the place of birds in the lives and cultures of the indigenous peoples of just
one region of North America, what we now know as the U.S. South. Come hear Dr. Krech of Brown University discuss his fascinating book and learn more about bird conservation in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Includes light refreshments before the lecture. This event is free, RSVP is requested to ensure sufficient
refreshments. Email [email protected] stating number and names of attendees. Your reservation is

RAS Kids­—Swansboro Harvest
Sherry Heath-Wagner
RAS Kids Volunteer
Second grade students at Swansboro Elementary School enjoyed
harvesting peanuts and carrots from their school’s garden on October
21st. Many of the students remember planting the seeds last spring,
when they were first graders. Mary Arginteanu, Robin Ruth and many
other dedicated Richmond Audubon Kids volunteers helped establish
and tended the garden while students were away on summer vacation.
The Swansboro garden is
identified as an official
wildlife habitat
Nanette Sweet, RAS Kids volunteer, stated that the peanut harvest
gleaned approximately 12 pounds of peanuts. After the peanuts are
roasted, students will get a chance to taste their harvest and compare
them to packaged peanuts from the store. The carrots were given to
students and teachers who planned to include them in salads.
The Swansboro garden is identified as an official wildlife habitat
and is used as an alternative setting to teach academic concepts at the
school. Cultivating plants in the “outdoor classroom” provides
opportunities for students to learn about the natural world around
them. Students were excited to discover black swallowtail caterpillars
in the garden while pulling carrots. You can bet those same students
will be looking for the butterflies next spring.

Of Birds and Critters—A Simple Walk
Joe Lively
A
fter being cooped up due to several days of heavy
rains from the last hurricane, my demeanor was
approaching that of a bear coming out of hibernation. I really needed to get out of the house. Only two
weeks remained before the start of general hunting
season, so I decided to do some exploring and get a
little exercise. Southerly winds and balmy temperatures were perfect for an adventure hike.
Grabbing my camera and stuffing my backpack
with a few snacks and some water, I set out to follow
an old roadbed passing through a long idle field that
was surrounded by thick hardwoods. This trek of a
little more than three miles one way would do wonders for my attitude. Moving along quietly and stopping frequently to listen would be the key to discovering critters as they went about their natural activities.
This is a magical time of year, when leaves change
color and begin falling from trees. It is also when
tannic acid is released from leaves as they dry out.
Decomposing hardwood leaves add a wonderful
fragrance to the air. As if recognizing the tart odor to
be a subtle sign of changing seasons, many animals
respond by increasing their feeding activity before the
harshness of winter sets in. The sounds that animals
and birds make are often heard well before you are
able to see any movement. Just ahead, along the edge of the tree line, I could
hear something large rustling the leaves. Now, I
was getting excited. Could this be a gang of turkeys
scratching for seeds and insect larva? Advancing cautiously, I saw four does and a young buck pawing the
ground underneath an old persimmon tree. Then the
gentle wind shifted. Detecting my presence, the deer
snorted and bolted back into the deep woods. Perhaps
this would be a good place for a deer stand, I mused.
Woodpeckers could be heard hammering away on
dead branches as they probed for juicy grubs.

continued from page 7
Sparrows called from their perch in the thickets and
groups of chickadees seemed to follow me, scouring
sycamore and gum trees for tiny seeds. A covey of quail
exploded from their cover, glided over the ridge into the
woods and immediately began calling each other
to regroup.
Before long, I came to a medium sized tree bent
over by the weight of vines. Even from a distance, I could
see that the vines were thick and full of dried fox grapes.
Then I noticed that something large was literally shaking
the tree. Several dark shapes moved awkwardly around

on the branches. Could this be a couple of feeding bears?
Unsure what was in the tree, I moved my camera tripod closer, hoping to get a few shots while the critters were
intent upon gorging themselves. Sure enough, the telltale sign of a long reddish neck revealed their identity. Turkeys! One sharp-eyed
old bird had raised his head and spotted me. With a few “Put-Puts” and a whole lot of squawking, four long
beards flapped out of the tree and hit the ground running. Two others just flew down and walked around,
as if inebriated from eating too many fermented fox grapes. The whirring of my camera sent them scurrying
down through the oaks. Gradually, nature’s therapy was beginning to soothe the ills of mind and body.
It was a long way back to my truck and there was plenty of time to assess the experience. It was great to
capture an image of those turkeys dancing around in the treetop and a few more when they hit the ground.
The panorama of critters acting out their natural roles would surely be passed on to my grandkids. Thank
you Lord for the blessings of simple walks. I felt great! Getting to sleep that night was not a problem.
