The fifth Birding Festival, co-sponsored by K.E.ST.R.E.L, will include a variety of hikes, bird banding demonstrations, and canoe trips. Through the cooperation of private landowners, several new sites for birding field trips will be available.

      A special highlight of this year's festival will be a keynote speech by Pete Dunne. Pete is the Director of the Cape May Bird Observatory and well-known to many of us as a delightful writer and speaker.

      For more information or a Festival registration packet, contact the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce by phone at (757) 787-2460 or by mail at Box R, Melfa VA 23410.
