If I have 4 or 5 days in late February, I would head to Florida,  
specifically Sanibel Island.  You would have to fly into Naples or Fort  Myers 
and rent a 
car, but what a great place when you get there.  It is my  favorite spot on 
the East Coast.  The Ding Darling Refuge is  a fantastic place, and you would 
be close enough to go to the Corkscrew  Swamp Sanctuary.
 
Also, the area around Charleston SC is a six hour drive from  Richmond and 
has some good birding spots.  The Middleton Place  Inn just outside of 
Charleston overlooks a river and a marsh and when I  stayed there you got the 
free use 
of kayaks.  The Francis Marion  Forest is nearby, and is a neat place, too.
