MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MD OSPERYers, Through the generous donation of an anonymous provider, a power boat will be made available for up to 5 people (pilot provided) to travel to barrier islands in the Southern Tip area of the Delmarva peninsula. As mentioned in earlier messages, the Boat Team can land on either or both Wreck and Smith Is. as part of their contribution to the Kiptopeke Challenge, Sept 20, 2003. Participants will be in the best position to see a wide variety of shorebirds and waterfowl on exposed mudflats and shoals in between islands as well as have the potential for observing pelagic species. Donations go to the Coastal Virginia Wildlife Observatory, an IRS non-profit organization. To register for this Fabulous Opportunity, contact Kurt Gaskill (kurtcapt87 at aol.com). Descriptons and photographs of this Trip would be most welcome! ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
