WildBird's Top 50 Birding Hotspots t seems as though birds are in constant motion, migrating north and south, flying from nesting locations to feeding sites, searching for food, searching for mates, nesting, caring for young, and chasing competitors and predators.
Some birders seem to be in constant motion, too, but that makes sense.
There are a lot of birds to see, and it is exciting to visit different birding hotspots during the prime times of the year when vast flocks of a variety of species can be observed and photographed. A few birding hotshots know where the best birding hotspots are located and when to visit them. Here, in this Special 10th Anniversary Issue of WildBird , I offer a list of the top 50 birding locations in North America and where to get more information about them. Although the 50 birding hotspots have been given numerical designations, this treatment is not necessarily indicative that one birding location is better than another. Better yet, plan to visit as many of these prime birding locations and check off the number of species you see, write about your favorite experiences and document as many sightings as possible with photographs.
