Pete Thayer's Favorite Hot Spots:
Hawk Mountain Sanctuary
40.40 N   75.58 W
October = raptors. West of Allentown, this is one of the best hawk and falcon watching sites in North America. It consists of 2,200 acres straddling the Kittatinny Ridge of the Appalachian Mountains.

Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area
40.28 N   76.23 W
This may be the top spot in the state to see waterfowl. Fall migration and late winter are good times to visit. Migrating Snow Geese and Tundra Swans are present in large numbers.

Presque Isle State Park
42.09 N   80.07 W
This hook of land juts into Lake Erie, creating a wonderful migratory gathering point. Spring migration is best. You are likely to see 20 or more warbler species in a day or two.

Tinicum (John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge)
39.90 N   75.41 W
Located just a mile north of the Philadelphia airport, Tinicum has wetlands and fields that attract a wide variety of species. Birding can be good at any time of the year. Check the marshes and impoundments for migrating shorebirds.
