Join us for the Great Adirondack Birding Celebration!

The Adirondacks are a vast, six-million-acre wilderness in upstate New York, offering some of the most spectacular natural landscapes in the Northeast. As the southernmost reach of the great northern boreal forest, the region features dense spruce-fir woodlands, remote bogs, and rugged mountain peaks, creating a unique blend of northern and temperate ecosystems. This makes the Adirondacks a critical breeding ground for many boreal bird species typically found much farther north, including Bicknell’s Thrush, Canada Jays, Black-backed Woodpeckers, and even Boreal Chickadees. Unlike a national park, the Adirondacks combine protected public lands with small communities, striking a rare balance between conservation and human presence. With its pristine lakes, winding rivers, and rich biodiversity, this extraordinary landscape is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, wildlife lovers, and birders seeking a deep connection to nature.
