Hey folks,
     Saturday, June 15, 2002 the Bristol Bird Club enjoyed a canoe trip down 
the Clinch River along a 6 mile section below Cleveland, VA in Russell 
County.  The trip was sponsored by The Nature Conservancy, providing 
accomodations at Rikemo Lodge near Dungannon, VA in Scott Co.  The birds seen 
on the weekend outing will be compiled and listed at 
http://www.freelists.org/archives/bristol-birds/.  The purpose of this 
message is to report the Butterflies and Odonates I saw during the weekend in
