Piscataway Park

The mouth of the Piscataway Creek at the Potomac River is one of the best spots in PG County for wintering waterfowl and gulls. The parking lot at the Wharf Road fishing area (aka Farmington Landing) is gravel-surfaced; birding will be near the parked cars and is wheelchair-accessible. There may also be a short stroll for landbirds on a section of the paved road. Opportunities for side-trips to other parts of the national park afterward. If the Black-throated Gray Warbler is still here, we will search for it. We will also bird Piscataway Boardwalk along the Potomac across from Mt. Vernon. Bring scopes and snacks. Leader Ken Cohen (kvulture@aol.com). Reservations not needed. Meet at the Fishing Area at the north end of Wharf Road at 8 am. Click here for Google map and directions.
