Hi folks
I'm off to the States later this year, probably from 2nd september for about three weeks and I could use some info/contacts. Although it will not be primarily a birding trip (it's my honeymoon), I've been given license to do as much birding as I possibly can. We'll be in New York for a couple of days first, about the only birding I could realistically do there would be Central Park (unless anyone knows of any other good, but close areas to central New York?) so any info on what to expect there or where to look would be appreciated. After that we then travel to PA for the majority of the trip, based in Altoona. We will be hiring a car so should have reasonable mobility and will probably also be venturing into Gettysburg as well. Any info on birding locations, species to expect, etc at any of the sites would be greatly appreciated as there seem to be very few trip reports to PA on the internet, but I did expect that with it not being an 'obvious' birding holiday location.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
Regards
Chris
