Hi folks,

I'm headed to Ocean City, NJ in August and was looking on info for good places to shoot. Seems to be a few refuges around, along with Cape May area. Looking for shore birds, birds of prey, and general scenery. I'm renting a 400mm F5.6L for the trip. Recommendations?

Greenflies are brutal there this time of year. Be prepared.:)

Hi Kevin,

You may also want to drive just south to Stone Harbor Point. It's one of New Jersey's premiere birding locations, with lots of terns in late summer, along with a variety of other shorebirds and others.
