Hello from Philadelphia (1 Viewer)

[Marceli Szpak]

Hello my name is Marcin I live in Philadelphia, PA. On the long Thanksgiving weekend I plan a quick ornithological excursion to California or Florida. I have never been on the west coast, so I am asking for suggestions of places of accumulation of shore birds during their migrations and wintering. In the near future I would also like to visit the Gulf of Mexico (Florida, Louisiana) what are the best places there for the observation of shorebirds?
Thank you
Marcin

Hi Marcrdli and a warm welcome to you from those of us on staff here at BirdForum :t:

Not familiar with the west coast of Florida all that much but I do know we have some Floridians here so you should get some answers before long.

Incidentally, I tweaked your email address to avoid any trolling spammers.

Hi Marcin,

Glad to have you aboard. I am certain that your request for places to see shorebirds will get some response if you post it in the "Information Wanted" forum as suggested by Katy Penland.

Hi, and welcome! I moved to Florida about 1 1/2 years ago from the DC area. This is a birding heaven! I'm not familiar with the West Coast, but they say Merritt Island on the East Coast is wonderful. I'm planning on going many times over the next few months. I just ordered my first scope and that's the place I plan on breaking it in.

Good luck with your adventures. I'm sure you'll find this website a big help in answering any questions you have.

Chrispie
