You Could Win These Adorable Osprey Chicks!

Just nominate an Osprey pair in your neighborhood for the King and Queen Contest. Take a picture of the pair with your mobile phone and email it with location, names you give them and anything you've noticed about them to president@downtowncolonialbeach.org. Or post it on the Colonial Beach Osprey Festival Facebook site yourself. Don't forget to send us your contact information (private message if you wish). Get your entries in soon. They'll be gone by October.

These irresistibly cute critters were made by Colonial Beach fabric artist Judith McIrvin who generously contributed them to support the "Virtual" Osprey Festival. One will be saved for a raffle among donors along with a beautiful piece of artwork by local artist Eric Nelson. Proceeds from the Virtual Osprey Festival will go towards trees and landscaping for the Colonial Beach commercial districts.
