12. Fair Oaks on the Magothy, Severna Park, Maryland. The Magothy River is a tributary on the western side of the Chesapeake Bay between Baltimore to the north and Annapolis to the south. Looking across the river is girl scout Camp Whipporwill. The tributary just in front of the camp to the left is the 'Little Magothy' and the middle tributary is 'Cattail Creek', while the closest body of water to the left is a cove in Fair Oaks. This scene is the beginning of the fullness of the Magothy; the mouth into the Chesapeake Bay is 5 miles south-east to the right. September 2000.
