Talbot County’s Got Game: A Hunting Guide

Our 600 miles of Eastern Shore coastline, preserved woodland forests, and open farmland create a welcoming habitat for large and small game. Whitetail deer is the big prize along with geese and duck, but turkey and other waterfowl are also plentiful. Talbot County’s hunting guides are ready to supply you with the necessary equipment and find you just the right spot to bag your prize. Most hotels and vacation rentals here are dog and hunter friendly, and we boast one of the most respected hunting supply stores in the country, Albright’s Gun Shop, to help you gear up for a day in the field.

Annual Waterfowl Festival

Retriever Dog demonstrations during the Waterfowl Festival in Talbot County, Maryland.

Held annually in November for over 50 years, the Waterfowl Festival salutes the thousands of geese and other migratory birds that pass through the Atlantic Flyway each autumn. This three-day, dog-friendly event attracts 15,000-20,000 outdoor and sporting enthusiasts to downtown Easton to enjoy retriever demonstrations, Diving Dogs competition, decoys, World Waterfowl Calling Championship, landscape and wildlife artists, children’s fishing derby, and plenty of tasty Eastern Shore fare. In the Sportsman’s Pavilion vendors offer everything from big-game hunting adventure trips to the smallest fishing lure. There you will find outdoor apparel from hats to boots, calls to lure ducks and geese, and taxidermy to stuff one’s bag.
