Mysterious. Beautiful. Dark. Frightening. Unique. Those and many other adjectives have been used to describe the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, that immense tract of low-lying wetland located in southeastern Virginia. Somewhat tamed by a system of drainage ditches and crisscrossed by a series of roads, the Swamp is still a place of mystery and conjures up fear in the hearts of many. In reality, it is a goldmine of wildlife and plants, many found nowhere else but the Swamp. And sitting in the heart of the refuge lies beautiful Lake Drummond, one of only two natural lakes in the state.
Teta Kain has visited the Swamp many times, assisting with bird surveys, participating in butterfly and bird counts, leading field trips, and enjoying private photographic safaris to all parts of the refuge. From cold wintry mornings to hellishly hot July afternoons, Teta explores the wonders of the flora and fauna of this paradise of birds, butterflies and other natural wonders.
This meeting will be held virtually via Zoom with details to be distributed via email and the club’s Facebook page.
