About this Collection

This is a collection of stories and articles about birding — also called bird-watching — especially at national wildlife refuges.

Birds captivate us — in their flight, their variety and color, their stamina, their ability to navigate great distances without a map. The more we watch, it seems, the more they generate a sense of wonder. 

Birds abound on national wildlife refuges, providing us a great reason to visit and learn more about them.
