Jim, you might want to pick up a copy of Jerry A. Cooper’s ABA Guide from 1995, “Birdfinder: A Birder’s Guide to Planning North American Trips”. Dated perhaps, but it gives a good idea of the best places to go for birds at certain times of the year throughout NA.
Back in the 90s when my kids got old enough for me to leave them for a week or so, or in the case of two of them, who got old enough to join me, I used Cooper’s book as a planning tool for my bird treks. It’s a great source for bird people who are just starting out on the bird-questing road.
I’ve roamed all over NA for birds, am still roaming, and Cooper’s book helped me zero-in on some great places.
Happy trails,
Lori Markoff

... if you had a week to 10 days - in 2026 - and birding here in the
U.S. ... ???
I'm thinking Bosque del Apache, somewhere in Texas, Florida, Maine,
Arizona, or ....
My primary interest is in photographing
birds ... not new/rare species.
