Re: Visiting Asheville -- targets



I don't think that FENCE has any good Swainson's Warbler habitat. The Blue
Wall Preserve is very different, even though it is only a few miles away.
The Piedmont Audubon Society in Spartanburg, SC visits the Blue Wall
periodically and may be working on a bird list of that area.
