Bowman Bill
Bowman Bill is a groundhog puppet who makes an annual Groundhog Day prediction at the Bowman Library in Stephens City, Virginia.
During Bowman Bill's annual appearance, Bill looks for his shadow. If he sees it, there will be a long winter. If he does not see his shadow, there will be an early spring.
The festivities usually include crafts, music, and discussions about groundhogs and groundhog habitats.
Bowman Bill is often joined by a local live groundhog.
