Hi All,
This weekend I went to the RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER WATERFOWL SHOW in Whitestone,
Va. What a wonderful day. It is an annual event, I would highly recommend
it. There were plenty of waterfowl woodcarvings. Also there were paintings
of birds, waterfowl, water dogs, boats and the Chesapeake as well and it
benefited the Whitestone FD. Also thewas the local chapter of the Northern
Neck (NNK) Audubon was there to answer any questions. It was a great show.
The Northern Neck is a fine place to bird. This weekend I birded on Mill
Creek and there was plenty to see.
