Hi Jason, good question. The only particular spot I can think of is
near Beach Dr. by Picnic Ground 3 (the one just N of the intersection
with Broad Branch and Glover Roads). I often see multiple adults
there, and have seen them repeatedly going to one area of trees on the
E side of the Rd., south of the picnic area. Unfortunately I never
have time to look for them since I am always on my way into work when
I bird this spot, but worth checking out for sure. On a smaller Buteo
note, there is an active Red-shoulder nest further N in the park, near
the boundary.
Good birding
Chris
