Photograph Bald Eagles at Conowingo Dam

What3Words: https://what3words.com/episodes.october.fading

This is outside of the Virginia Beltway, but it is worth the trip. It is about a 2-hour drive from Virginia north of Baltimore. The Conowingo Dam has been known for the highest number of Bald Eagles on the East Coast.

You are on your own for parking to get there early. I saw cars getting tickets once the parking lot was full. They do a shuttle bus if you park in the nearby field off the main road

We will aim to park towards to visitor's center towards the dam. If folks get hungry and tired of photographing the eagles/wildlife, we can head to Spready Oak Country Cafe (1643 Conowingo Rd, Rising Sun, MD 21911) for breakfast.

Bring:

Warm clothes - it gets cold down by the water

Long lens - 300mm or greater

Fully charged batteries

Empty cards

Water/Snacks/Food

Comfortable shoes
