["Bob Reilly" <rjreilly@xxxxxxx>]

Jethro Runco, the regular bander at Kiptopeke, is banding this spring for 
CVWO (Coastal Virginia Wildlife Observatory) at 1st Landing State Park 
(formerly Seashore Sate Park), every day through late May.  This morning he 
caught a prothonotary warbler on the 7:30 net run. Geez, I'd better get the 
last of the new nest boxes up at Dutch Gap ASAP!  For anyone interested in 
visiting the 1st Landing Station, Jethro would be glad to see you.  The 
station is located at the intersection of the Long Creek and White Hill Oak 
trails, about a 35 minute walk in from the Visitor's Center by way of the 
Kingfisher connecting trail off the main Cape Henry trail.  A really 
beautiful setting in among the Spanish moss.  Forested dunes, bald cypress 
swamp, tidal marsh and a freshwater lake all meet at that location.
