We shouldn’t find any real flamingoes in the Chesapeake Bay region. But, we will find a variety of species from year round songbirds to seasonal waterfowl. Bring your binoculars and explore the woodland and shoreline trails to find their habitat with us. Who knows? We might see an artificial rare bird or two.
