    Dublin Birding

    Hi, folks! I will be traveling to Dublin on May 12th with a tour group from Michigan, USA. Wondering what the best spots/parks for birding in the downtown area might be. We may be staying at the Belvedere Hotel or somewhere near Trinity University (not finalized yet). I'm probably the only...

    Whooping Crane Festival

    I am heading down to Texas from Michigan in a couple of weeks. Will be spending time in the San Antonio/San Marcos/Austin area and then heading down to the Whooping Crane Festival at Port Aransas. Have signed up for several trips. Any suggestions for free time birding in the area would be...

    Which book?

    Thanks, I'll check into that one. Does anyone know where I can find small card stock checklists for Ireland and Scotland? Don't want to have to make a bunch of full size copies of checklists from the internet nor do I want to spend a lot on money on bound checklists. Thanks.

    Which book?

    Thanks guys. That's 3 votes for Collins out of 4 cast so I guess I'll go with it. I am really looking forward to the trip. When I lived in Germany back in the 80's, I never made it past southern England so this will be new ground for me. Just have to make sure I don't miss the tour bus while...

    Costa Rica trip planning questions

    I've been to Costa Rica just once. I'm not the one to give advice on birding areas but if you spend time on the coast picking up seashells to bring back, make sure they are in your checked luggage. My group spent a couple of days on the west coast and did a bit of beach combing. At the airport...

    Garden List 2011

    Hi, just joined today and am poking about. This appears to be mainly a European thread. I assume a "garden list" is what you find around your house and property. I've been keeping one for my property for 16 years now. So far this year I have 75 species, 120 for the full 16 years. I count them if...

    Which book?

    Thanks to both of you. I checked both of these books just now and it appears they both include the continent as well. I was hoping for a guide that was more specific to the British Isles/Ireland. That would save me time in eliminating birds not found there. Unless, of course, there is not that...

    Which book?

    Hi everybody! I'm new today on the Bird Forum. As for my question, I will be traveling to Scotland and Ireland in mid-May 2012 for a ten day tour sponsored by a local community college. It will focus on geology and biology. My question is, what is the best book for me to buy as a field guide...
