I always think I'm going to take a short trip somewhere for some birding and sun and then get overwhelmed with the research and choices and procrastinate. So I'm putting it out here in case there are any recommendations that can help me. Essentially I'm looking for some sun, some birding and wildlife watching options. Second would be the possibility of a day or afternoon with a knowledgeable guide or birder to work on identification, say if there were shorebirds. Beachy somewhere near might be nice. I started thinking of FL but quickly ran into that March is often spring break month and lost all hope. Other than sunny, birdy, maybe beachy, hopefully cheap, experts available (well I guess thats starting to be quite a list) I don't have any specific tgt birds or areas. I was thinking sometime in early March Thanks, Mary, Fairborn OH ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
