On Monday, February 10, the Northern Neck Audubon Society will conduct a bird

the Rappahannock River. Possible sightings include bald eagles, lesser scaups,
buffleheads, mergansers, pied-billed grebes, loons, green-winged teals, eastern
bluebirds, red winged blackbirds, belted kingfishers, nuthatches, yellow-rumped
