We’ve got our first confirmed sighting of Parks and Recreation, the NBC sitcom that is filming scenes for its fifth-season premiere in D.C. this week. In the above photo, actors Aubrey Plaza and Chris Pratt, whose characters are joining Pawnee, Ind. City Councillor Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) and political consultant Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott) on their trip to Washington, are doing something outside the White House.

Poehler, Scott, Plaza and Pratt are, to our knowledge, the only regular cast members who made the trip. Nick Offerman, who plays the big-government-hating Ron Swanson, will not be around to complain about excessive regulation and limited bacon.

From yesterday, here’s our handy guide to stalking the Parks and Recreation shoot.
