An anchor, too heavy for me to
carry, I perched it on top of a prominent rock. A fellow birder I know, took cool photos of a Peregrine Falcon snatching a sandpiper off of a mudflat and an Osprey struggling to get airborne with a Channel Cat as big as he!

RVR and Spruce Run Reservoirs were built in response to "the drought of record" in the 1960's. Their main purpose is water supply. The fish inhabiting them are just a bonus.
About a month or so ago, was running the gas out of my 6hp, and lost the prop about 30 feet out from the dock, didnt happen to find that, did you????
