How about either the Sibley or Audubon app Thomas?

I use Audubon Birds of North America which opens as Audubon Birds Pro A Field Guide to North American Birds. It's a free Android app.
I like it, I think it's great. It responds very fast.
It has an eBird link for Hotspots as well as Nearby Observations. The app auto detects your location or you can manually input the location you're traveling to.
Beside all the pretty pictures, there's a good selection of voice recordings for each bird. The other stuff is there also; Details, Range, Similar, Sightings.
You can also get a Sibley's app for Android but that will cost you 15 dollars.

Once you download the app you have to register with your email addee. After you register, they send you a conformation email with a link you're required to click on. You can use the app for 5 days without clicking the link. The app is free, they just want to send you stuff concerning the Audubon Society.
Try the app to ensure the maps loads correctly. Do this by manually setting your location to somewhere in the USA, go to Nearby Observations, tap one of the birds, the map should open with pin-points.
Then go to/tap Find a Hotspot with Observations, the map of your local should open up with pin-points.
If your maps do not open or work right, uninstall and re-install and that should take care of the issue.
Good luck my friend..!!

Nice....I'm glad it's working...!!
If you're still in the trip planing stage, take a look at my HotSpot Birding post in a different thread. It might be useful in sorties out of your Virginia home base.
