Old Trail; Crozet

With fog and clouds up in the mountains, I hiked here in Old Trail. We had all day rain on Monday, and almost all day long and complete cloud cover on Tuesday and Wednesday. I think that the migrating warblers agreed with me and decided to forage where they could better see the insects. I saw 7 warbler species during three 2 hour hikes (including last Sunday).
