Bird Walk - Hains Point

This is one of DC's most peaceful birding gems -- wide open views, sweeping water, and the chance to spot winter visitors who only grace our area this time of year.

As we stroll along the shoreline, we'll look and listen for visitors such as Buffleheads, Mergansers and even the now regular Winter visitor, a Yellow-throated Warbler!

Whatever your experience or skill level, this walk is rooted in the joy of being outdoors together.

What To Bring

• Binoculars, if you have them (we have a few loaners for the walk)
• Warm layers, gloves, hat -- it's always a little colder and windier by the water
• Comfortable walking shoes for a slow pace on mixed terrain
• Snacks and water
• Curiosity!

Accessibility

The route is primarily along flat, paved surfaces and suitable for strollers, wheelchairs, and mobility aids. There are some optional grassy unpaved areas along the route that are not accessible.

Come out and flock with us, breathe the winter air, and let the birds show you how beautiful the quieter seasons can be

See you outside!
