The Rockpile Recreation Area (Site 7, Northeast Loop) sits at the base of Wilson Dam. This area provides basic camping and picnicking facilities in a wooded setting along the edge of Pickwick Reservoir. Woodlands in the park attract numerous songbirds, while the reservoir attracts a variety of waterfowl, wading birds, gulls, and raptors. Check around the campground for nesting Great Crested Flycatchers and visiting Baltimore or Orchard orioles. You may want to bring a spotting scope to scan the numerous gulls that line the rocky islands below the dam. There is also a hiking trail that provides access to some of the woodlands in the park.
