Home to major birding sites, conservation areas, State Parks, and high-traffic migration paths along with specialty birding sites such as the Montezuma Wildlife Preserve and eagles of Onondaga Lake, Upstate New York is rapidly becoming a significant draw for birders everywhere. In Upstate New York Birding, Randi Minetor – prolific birding author and President of the Rochester Birding Association – and Matt Kosty – owner and operator of Wild Birds Unlimited Stores in Central New York – show birders from amateur to expert the best places across the state for birding. Divided into four regions: Central NY including the Finger Lakes; Western New York; the Adirondacks and Capital District; and the Southern Tier, Catskills, and Hudson River Valley, this is an indispensable guide for popular and hidden locations where birds thrive. Featuring 300 sites across these regions, Upstate New York Birding offers readers destinations with maps, full-color bird photos, seasonal migration details, local resources, a species index, and insider information on where to go and when to see the Empire State’s most iconic and elusive birds.
