Virginia Birders,
Registration is open for the 2nd Annual Virginia Beach Winter Wildlife
Festival. This event (Fri. January 27th - Sun. Jan 29th) highlights the
great wildlife viewing opportunities that Virginia Beach offers during
the cold months. There are trips scheduled to Chesapeake Bay Bridge
Tunnel, Back Bay and False Cape and numerous other sites along with
workshops and an exhibit hall on Saturday at the Princess Anne
Recreation Center.
Be sure to join us Friday evening for a screening of the amazing
documentary "Winged Migration" http://tinyurl.com/wingedmigrationtrailer
at the Virginia Aquarium. This screening is sponsored by the Back Bay
Restoration Foundation.
The festival is presented by Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation and the
Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries with support from VA
DCR State Parks, USFWS, Lynnhaven River Now, the Virginia Aquarium and
