Behind Blue Ridge Country

CURRENT Behind Blue Ridge Country

Birds of the Blue Ridge: Blue-gray Gnatcatcher

It is the only gnatcatcher in the east and only present during breeding season (April to September).

One of the Blue Ridge’s Best Rivers to Paddle: The Shenandoah

For easy paddling, fetching scenery, quality bird watching and much improved fishing, the South Fork of the Shenandoah and the Main Stem Shenandoah in Virginia and West Virginia rate a look.

Birds of the Blue Ridge: Prothonotary Warbler

Of the three dozen or more warblers that visit the eastern U.S., this bright yellow species is one of only two warblers that nest in tree cavities.

Birds of the Blue Ridge: Indigo Bunting

The stunning turquoises, blues and purples of this bird are a “trick of the light.”

Birds of the Blue Ridge: Blue Grosbeak

While widespread, these retiring birds are often heard before they are seen.
