What a superb event Thursday evening! It was a first-ever joint club meeting at the Rust Library in Leesburg. Tom Kercheval, Executive Director of the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy, gave a great presentation on the importance of preserving Virginia's wetlands. Guest speaker Tom Ramsay (you may remember when Tom spoke for the club earlier in the fall) tied in his presentation of shooting local wildlife in his backyard (also in Leesburg). He and his wife are both fantastic photographers! We had about 30 attendees who braved the rainy night, and I believe we all agreed it was worth It!

Thank you to Tom Kercheval for the attached images as well! (Written by Patricia Berry)
