The Virgina Dept. of Game and Inland Fisheries had a great program called Virginia Birding and Wildlife Trail. I think it would make another wonderful category. Similar to the Florida
"From the Atlantic Ocean on Virginia's eastern border, to the towering Mt. Rogers at its southwest corner, the Commonwealth includes every bird and animal habitat that occurs naturally between Maine and Florida. The state also offers a long history, rich culture, and tradition of warm hospitality to welcome visitors.
Within Virginia's 43,000 square miles of diverse natural habitat, you can find some 400 species of birds, 250 species of fish, 150 species of terrestrial and marine animals, 150 species of amphibians and reptiles, and a wide variety of aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. The Virginia Birding and Wildlife Trail celebrates this diversity. In fact, it is the first statewide program of its kind in the United States. In Virginia, three phases of the trail link wildlife viewing sites throughout the state." VGIF website. http://www.dgif.virginia.gov/vbwt/
This is my first category proposal so if I understand the rules, I am looking for committee members to join me in building this category.
