Look into ones here in NoVa as well - you can take the metro down, and we have sooo many birding areas like Dyke Marsh and Huntley Meadows.

Huntley Meadows is THE SHIT. Saw a super gorgeous and derpy Great Blue Heron there last weekend. There are frequently updated signs about what you might spot depending on the time of year. I believe they also do guided walks and there's tons of other amazing wildlife to see other than birds.

Unfortunately not the easiest to get to by Metro. There is a bus that drops right outside the park and more buses another 10 min walk away, but headways can be long, especially on weekends, if you don't time it properly. Doable though for someone motivated enough, and should be better once the yellow line gets running again.

But yea, Huntley Meadows is awesome
