I was playing with an Amazon Fire 7 last weekend, it's a nice tablet in 
terms for the price, $80 for the 16GB version. It also has a microSD 
card slot so it's expandable to 256GB, which will probably be important 
for your bird watching guide and OSM cache.

The only drawbacks (which are big drawback IMHO) is it runs Amazon's 
Android and not Google's, I'm not sure how they are subsidizing the 
price, and I'm not a fan of tablets with a 16x9 resolution.
