Fran, There is a "bog" in Suitland (PG County) of all places. It is located off the Suitland Parkway. It's quite small but it is one of the best places to see insectiverous plants. More information here: http://www.biodiversitynet.org/publicpolicy/ssb.html. There is also a bog in Charles County called Araby Bog (http://www.mdflora.org/placesatrisk/arbybotsrvy_rod.html). //////// Arlene Ripley | || Calvert County, MD | 0 || aripley@nestbox.com | || http://www.nestbox.com || ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
