From this view, we will help you find a diverse community of birds and celebrate the similarities between species.

California is the third largest state in the United States with only Alaska and Texas being larger. California has close to 163,700 square miles of tremendously diverse terrains from coastal regions to mountains and deserts. Breeding and migrating overlaps within these areas for many species of birds. Several species migrate to the warmth of California in the winter months. The state is uniquely positioned to offer a variety of habitats throughout the year. Based on knowledge from the world’s leading experts, understanding the role birds play in their habitat brings a greater appreciation to the art of bird watching.

This book will list some of the favorite birding locations in Southern, Central, and Northern California that are closest to the main metropolitan areas.
