Birmingham Birding Sites
Alabama has a number of wonderful places to go birding. Thanks primarily to Greg Harber, we have assembled a list of sites here that are favorites of members of the Birmingham Audubon Society. We strongly suggest that you get hold of the DeLorme state map for Alabama when trying to find the locations denoted on the maps pointed to by the links below. DeLorme coordinates are included in the descriptive text that tells how to locate the sites. Please respect property owners' rights when visiting these sites. With one or two careless acts, a few thoughtless birders can spoil birding sites for everyone. Here are the regions on this Web site:

Birmingham area

North Alabama area

Farm and Field Sites

Swamp and Wetlands areas

Coastal areas

Late Summer areas
