| The North Carolina Birding Trail:
Mountain Trail Guide North Carolina
harbors an incredible diversity of habitats that provide food and
shelter for more than 440 bird species throughout the year.
The North Carolina Birding Trail is a driving trail linking birders
and tourists with great birding sites across the state and the local
communities in which they are found.
This third of three regional guides presents 105
premier birding destinations in the North Carolina mountains, from
the Tennessee border in the west to Interstate 77 in the east.
The spiral-bound volume features maps, detailed site descriptions,
and color photographs throughout. Each site description
includes directions as well as information on access, focal species
and habitats, and on-site visitor amenities. Special "while
you're in the area" listings accompany each of eighteen site
groupings, so visitors can travel to a cluster of birding
destinations and enjoy other local highlights and attractions along
the way.
The NC Birding Trail is a partnership of six
agencies and organizations: Audubon North Carolina, NC
Cooperative Extension, NC Sea Grant, NC State Parks, NC Wildlife
Resources Commission, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Its mission is to conserve and enhance North Carolina's bird habitat
by promoting sustainable bird watching activities, economic
opportunities, and conservation education.
