Pete Thayer's Favorite Hot Spots:
Assateague Island National Seashore
38.34 N 75.08 W
This barrier island has waterfowl, waders, peeps and songbirds. Habitats include dunes, marshes and forests. Mid-April to Mid-May is best and you avoid the summer crowds.
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historic Park
39.04 N 77.25 W
The 185 mile long canal stretches from Washington, D.C to Cumberland, Maryland. The bottomlands woods are filled with warblers during migration -- but get there early!
Conowingo Dam
39.66 N 76.18 W
Come in the winter to see the Bald Eagles. Thousands of gulls may be found just below the dam.
Ocean City
38.38 N 75.06 W
Stay away in summer -- too crowded. But the rest of the year you will find seabirds and shorebirds along the jetty and in the surrounding areas.
