Audubon Society of Central Maryland
Did you know?
Dragonflies rank among the most imperiled species in North America.  In Maryland 60 percent are considered rare or uncommon - including the treetop emerald, the jewel wing and the blackwater bluet. Long regarded as excellent barometers of environmental health, their demise is an indication of the state of our aquatic resources.

Fred Archibald Sanctuary
9-11 a.m.


Birds are mostly quiet at this time of year, but butterflies and dragonflies are very active, and the grass in the meadows will tower over your head.  

Meet at the sanctuary entrance at 9 a.m., 6011 Boyer's Mill Road, New Market. The sanctuary entrance is on the east side of Boyer's Mill Road, just one mile north of Rte. 144 in New Market. People of all ages are welcome. Be sure to wear sturdy shoes, and bring a hat and sunscreen. There are no rest room facilities at the sanctuary, and the walk will be canceled in the event of inclement weather.
