Abstract:
Every fall thousands of migratory birds winter in the eastern part of the state, attracting bird watchers from as far away as Canada, California, and Texas. The Wings Over Water Festival, held in Manteo in November, brings bird watchers together with the local community. Field trips to the Outer Banks, Lake Mattamuskeet, and Alligator River provide good opportunities for wildlife viewing. Other activities include exhibits, a photography contest, and kayaking lessons.
