American Birding Association

 The ABA's website is a required stop for all birding web surfers.  Among many other features, it contains a current checklist of accepted North American species and a Code of Ethics to which all birders should adhere.  Here's the link.

Birding with David Simpson

 I've never used David's guide business, but I have birded with him, and I'm impressed.  He's knowledgeable, helpful, and patient.  Also, he has the best birding ears I've ever been around.  His birding blog is informative and I enjoy keeping track of his big day efforts through his posts to Facebook.  Here's the link.

Great Florida Birding Trail

 A good place to start any birding trip is checking out the Great Florida Birding Trail.  There are four booklets in the series and together they report on hundreds of birding sites across the state.  You can download the booklets from the state site.  Here's the web address.  Click here to get started.

Pinellas Birds

 If you're planning any birding in the Pinellas County area, this site is absolutely invaluable.  Great photos, accurate information, interesting articles, and bird sightings that are updated almost constantly make this one of the best websites of its kind.  You can access Ron Smith's site by clicking here.

Zugunruhe Birding Tours

 John Puschock is the founder of the original Florida County Listing website. Since leaving Florida he has founded Zugunruhe Birding Tours, features the most extensive schedule of tours to Adak Island, Alaska with guides who have extensive experience birding the island.  They also have a number of short tours targeting species with restricted ranges or that are otherwise difficult to see on other tours, plus longer tours to some incredible destinations.  If/when I schedule a tour to Alaska, this is where I'm starting.  Click here for the link.

When I go birding outside of Alachua County, I usually start planning my trip with one of the links on this page.  Each contains a wealth of information about birds and birding sites around the state.
