Pete Thayer's Favorite Hot Spots:
Mount Washington
44.40 N   71.21 W
Take the toll road during the spring and summer and listen for Bicknell's Thrush. Check out Jefferson Notch as well. You may see a Ruffed Grouse.

Odiorne Point State Park
43.04 N   70.72 W
Along the coast of New Hampshire this park has tidal pools, marshes, forests and overgrown military bunkers. August shorebird migration is very good. Raptors migrate over in the fall and Purple Sandpipers and Grebes winter here.

Seabrook Harbor
42.92 N   70.84 W
The 18 mile seacoast is a great spot to bird. Start at Seabrook and work your way up to Odiorne Point State Park and Great Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Check the mudflats for migrating shorebirds.
