Get out your zoom lenses and get ready for some wildlife photography at a club favorite, Huntley Meadows Park in Alexandria, Virginia!  With woodland trails, boardwalks through wetlands and an observation deck this local gem allows you to view various forms of wildlife, including abundant waterfowl.  At this time of year there should be a lot of ducks and geese and hopefully some ducklings, goslings and mammals such as otter, beaver and raccoon.  There are also some landscape photography opportunities.<\/p>\n
