[rec.birds] Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge

bmann@desire.wright.edu (12/12/90)

Does anyone know of a place to stay at this time of year south of the
Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge on the Outer Banks of North Carolina?
I am interested in any type of accommodation: motel, B&B, efficiency, even
a private home whose owners would not mind taking in a wandering birder
for a few days between Christmas and New Year.  Many places close down
during the winter, but the birding at the refuge is excellent at this
time of year (weather permitting).  I ordinarily would stay at Nags Head,
but the bridge across Oregon Inlet has recently been damaged, so the
only way to get across the Inlet is via a 1-hour ferry ride: ok as
a one-shot deal, but maybe a bit much to do twice a day.  Any suggestions
are welcome.  Send e-mail messages to bmann@desire.wright.edu or
bmann@wsu.bitnet.  Thanks. - Barbara Mann, Wright State University,
