Georgia Birdwatchers Field Trips

To be the largest state east of Mississippi and with the diversed topography, Georgia hosts abundent habitats for over 400 species of birds including common residents and migrants. There are four major geographic regions in Georgia, which are Mountain, Piedmont, Coastal Plain and Coast from the order of northwest direction to the southeast of the state. This useful interactive map will show readers all the upcoming bird watch field trips in Georgia. If you would like to go to a birding field trip in the areas other than your home town, I hope this map can guide you to the expert birders who lead the trips.

You can move the map up and down, right and left by draging your PC mouse. Click on the green "bird" signs on the map, you will be directed to the calendar event. Most field trips are free to public and feel free to contact the trip leader in advance for the meet location and cancelation in case of the inclement weather. Why not schedule your next vacation to one of the birding field trips?



If you or someone you know who regularly lead a field trip or have a special event, please contact us and we will be happy to add your schedule on map. Field trips schedule is updated regularly by the local Audubons or field trip leaders. We hope you find this map helpful and resourceful. Bookmark this page and come back to visit often.
