Ms. Cowan--

Since you live in the District, you might also want to try Huntley
Meadows (an old bed of the Potomac River, and thus formerly part of
Maryland), located just south of Alexandria.  Huntley attracts a good
mix of sparrows during appropriate seasons, and it's often great even
when the sparrows are sparse.

Hi Gail,
Good point!  I'm in the District (Georgetown), so Montgomery, Prince
George's & Howard are most convenient.  And, of course, DC.
Thanks,
Carrol
