Alabama Audubon Field Trip: Birmingham Zoo and Great Backyard Bird Count

Seasonal bird counts have been a central part of Alabama Audubon’s work ever since its founding in 1946. This year, we’ll continue that tradition with a field trip to the Birmingham Zoo in support of this year’s Great Backyard Bird Count. Bird lovers of all ages are invited to bring their binoculars, bird field guides, and cameras for an experience like no other!

We are excited to partner with The Birmingham Zoo—one of the state’s most visited attractions. The zoo provides productive birding all year around the 122-acre site. During our two hour stroll around the park, we will cover the Alabama Woodlands section of the Children’s Zoo and the retention ponds and wetlands at the back side of the zoo.
