I always use ebird.org and its hotspot locator (http://ebird.org/ebird/hotspots)


Simply type in the location where you are going in the top right search bar - the interactive map will take to that area. You can move the map around (just like google maps) and find the markers that are red or orange. This indicates a higher species count at that spot and from there, you can see what birds have been most recently seen (you can find a great target species to hunt down-like a Greater Roadrunner!). I use this for all of my trips if I cannot find any good recommendations.


Hope this helps.

Fellow Ohio birders,

if this note and question are inappropriate for this listserv
please disregard/delete.......

we are thinking of travelling to SE Arizona in late Feb or early March,
(Tucson and surroundings) and looking for recommendations
for birding hot spots, places to stay, etc.

we love the birding tips we get here!

thanks,
 - the Cohens
