If you are looking for information on birding in North Dakota,
then you are in the right place.
Whether you are planning a short day trip to a local park or
an extended trip to a nearby bird sanctuary, you need a good plan.
If you want to search for a specific bird, maybe for your life
list, you will need to do some research.
Use your field
guide for habitat information and possible locations to begin your
search. Then take a look at the
bird checklists provided by many wild life sanctuaries. Once you've
narrowed your search area, plan your travel, get your birding
gear together and Go Birding!
If you're simply looking for a place to go bird watching
without an intended target, you still need a plan. You will need to research
the location instead of a specific bird. You will need maps, bird
checklists (if available) weather conditions, etc.
Great links for birding in the field or in your own
backyard:

wildlife sanctuaries, school and youth programs, nature camps and more.
North Dakota bird checklists are available from the
USGS. This link contains checklists for six wild life refuges in North
Dakota.
