We are going to visit Newfoundland in the fall. Can someone recommend a good book or two covering where to bird in Newfoundland?
 
Hi there and welcome to the forum on behalf of all the staff and mods. :hi:

I can't help with your query but I've moved it to hopefully somewhere you might get some good replies.
 
Yes, I own a book called Birding in Atlantic Canada: Newfoundland, by Roger Burrows. (Jesperson Press, 1989). I only had a week there, so didn't even begin to really take advantage of it, but it's an excellent guide to sites.

My own favourite place, for birds at least, was Stephenville crossing; lots of potential for rarities there.

However, for my money, the best part of the trip is the crossing over from North Sydney; lots of Storm-petrels and small whales to see (we were pretty lucky with the weather though - calm and sunny both coming and going).
