United States
The US is split into 48 contiguous states, Alaska and the Islands of Hawaii. Each have their own Fatbirder page. States are introduced by local residents. Below are links that either cover the whole US or regions larger than a single state. The recommended books also cover areas larger than a single state. A number of birding organisations span the entire US - it makes sense for every birder to be a member of a national organisation, a state one and their own local club. Being a member of an Audubon or other society is not just about what it can do for you but, to misquote the late great JFK, it is also about what you can do for it, and through it, the welfare of birds everywhere. |

National Bird-Feeding Society
http://www.birdfeeding.org/We lead pell-mell lifestyles with such competition for our time that it`s easy for stress to take over. But watching the acrobatic antics of finches at your feeders provides a few moments of pure pleasure, guaranteed to refresh your day. I love the fun of bird feeding and want to find out more about attracting birds to my yard, wrote Anne Michaels from North Carolina. That`s what the National Bird-Feeding Society is about, helping people to further enjoy a hobby that is entertaining and educational.
National Birdfeeding Society
http://www.birdfeeding.org/Birds fly through life, and through our yards, working tirelessly. Finding food. Seeking water. Building nests. Raising families. And along the way, they bring their free spirits, bright colours and constant chatter into our lives. Discover the advantage thousands of people already have: learning how to make bird feeding better. There is no real equivalent in the UK to the backyard birding of the states. In the UK a million RSPB members are interested in birds in a similar way and 20 million people feed the birds in their gardens... but this hasn`t really given rise to clubs or websites.

Partners in Flight
http://www.PartnersInFlight.orgPartners In Flight / Compañeros en Vuelo / Partenaires d`Envol was launched in 1990 in response to growing concerns about declines in the populations of many land bird species, and in order to emphasise the conservation of birds not covered by existing conservation initiatives. The initial focus was on species that breed in the Nearctic (North America) and winter in the Neotropics (Central and South America); but the focus has spread to include most landbirds and other species requiring terrestrial habitats.
Smithsonian Migratory Bird Centre

Waterbird Society
http://www.nmnh.si.edu/BIRDNET/CWS/On January 14, 1999, the Colonial Waterbird Society has officially changed its name to The Waterbird Society. This name change reflects a broadening of the society`s interest beyond colonial-nesting birds. The new focus will be expanded to include the biology, ecology, and conservation of waterfowl, shorebirds, and other water birds, whether colonial or not, since many important questions and methodologies are relevant to all aquatic birds.
Western Field Ornithologists
http://www.wfo-cbrc.org/WFO is an organisation committed to field-oriented descriptive ornithology, with appeal for both amateur and professional. The region of interest encompasses the Rocky Mountain and Pacific states and provinces, including Alaska and Hawaii, western Texas, north-western Mexico, and the north-eastern Pacific Ocean.

1995 [August] - Urs Geiser - New England
http://www.crosswinds.net/~birdtrips/NewEngl95.htmlThis trip was mainly a family sightseeing trip, with several occasions for me to find a couple hours of birding time. I will only mention here the bird sightings and omit the other trip details...
2001 [March] - Alex Lees - New England
http://www.surfbirds.com/mb/Trip%20Reports/newengland.htmlA week`s break from University in late March seemed like a good time to visit family in New England and hopefully catch up with some of the northern specialties associated with this area...
2007 [July] - David Bell - Texas, New Mexico, Arizona
http://www.freewebs.com/ontariobirds/txnmazjul2007.htmJuly is a great time to bird these areas, but then again they are great at any time of year. 15 days isn't all that long, especially when you have that much ground to cover, and the trip was mostly to see as much as possible, not for any one species. For the trip, I used the "FalconGuide: Birding Texas", which covers all of Texas. I would recommend the ABA's Birding the LRGV though, it was sold out when we tried to order it. In Arizona, I used the "Birder's Guide to Southeastern Arizona", also from the ABA. Both were very useful for finding the birds, as well as www.birdingonthe.net for info on rarities. I've included the driving distances as usual. We ended up driving 1940 miles (3123 km) on one car, and 578 miles (931 km) on the other, for a total of 2518 miles (4054 km) driven, plus the 48 miles (77 km) we did in the taxi on the way to and from the airport. All flying distances are approximate, as we don't have access to an odometer (if planes even have them). The total flying distance was 3895 miles (6271 km)...
USA - birdnotes.net
http://birdnotes.net/Currently only Oregon, Washington and Idaho but I`m in the midst of totally redesigning the site`s user interface and will immediately afterwards add Nevada and California, then slowly other states west-to-east as resources permit. I`ve already got well over 3,000 trip reports from individuals integrated into a single database, along with over a 1,000 Oregon Bird Records, County Significant Species sightings, etc

Pelagic Trips off New England
http://members.aol.com/BBCPelagic/Whale watch trips take advantage of the many commercial whale watch boats in the area. The boat naturalist directs the trip and has control of the microphone. Club members stand together on the upper deck and watch for birds. If the naturalist happens upon a pod of whales, the boat usually stays with them for some time, even if birds are visible in the distance. Reservations are required and are made directly with the boat captain. Depending on the time of year, you can often get reservations on the day of the trip. Meet the BBC group on the dock 30 minutes before the trip.

Birds of the Mid-Atlantic
http://www.lonker.net/nature_ornithology_1.htmI don`t have a lifetime bird list or even a record of what I saw yesterday. Nor will I get on a plane to California to see one bird. But I do have feeders outside my home office window where I can watch a male Carolina Wren defending its territory and courting; Northern Cardinals chirping and foraging; Black-capped Chickadees and Tufted Titmice carefully choosing a plump sunflower seed and then flying to cover; American Goldfinches feeding on thistle seed; and a Sharp-shinned Hawk diving and capturing small birds near the feeder.

As often as not, some of the best weather for finding the best seabirds are on the days when walking to a lookout is least inviting.
