Perryville Town Park offers great views of the head of the Chesapeake Bay
and the entrance drive goes through a wooded area good for migrants.
However, both Elk Neck State Forest and Elk Neck State Park would likely
offer a greater variety of migrants. Of the two, the State Forest is
closer to Perryville and offers the benefit of being able to bird from the
car or roadside (therefore quicker access). At the Park you would have to
walk. It's not a long walk but if you're pressed for time the Forest would
be quicker.
