OUTING TO KNOTT'S ISLAND

IN SEARCH OF WILDFOWL

February, 2000

Knott's Island Outing

   We're kibitzing on the wildlife living in Mackay Island National Wildlife Refuge. On the Club's February 19th Outing to Knott's Island, NC we drove to the site of the Charles Kuralt Trail. Standing on the elevated trail platform, we enjoyed watching Snow Geese and Swans as they cavorted around the nearby marsh areas.

   Observing their long Vs in flight and the Swan's spectacular landing approach is truly awesome.

   Unfortunately no one bothered to take a picture of the geese!!
