A mid-day walk in Little Falls Park in Bethesda unexpectedly produced a 
Connecticut Warbler in addition to a less surprising Northern Waterthrush 
and Black-throated Green Warbler.

The Little Falls trail runs along the east side of Little Falls Parkway 
between Hillandale Rd and Dorset Ave.  The easiest access is to park at 
Bethesda Pool at the corner of Little Falls Parkway and Hillandale Rd. The 
trail starts on Hillandale Rd across the street from the back of the pool 
parking lot.  The Connecticut Warbler was seen in the area near the raised 
manhole cover on the left side of the trail a few minutes walk down from 
Hillandale Rd.  This area is described in the Montgomery County site 
guide, but I gave away my copy to a new birder so can't give a page 
reference.
