There are about 9,700 species of living birds, and many can be found right here on Long Island. Because the area offers many different habitats and sanctuaries for birds including fields, woods, trees, shrubs, lakes and marshes, there are many different varieties of bird to observe. The island boasts three different types of ducks alone. From warblers to birds of prey, wading birds to shore birds, bird watchers and Audubon members have hit the jackpot on Long Island.
The majority of birdwatchers go birding for recreation, but a small segment of the community is conducting scientific research on birds and their natural ecosystems. This scientific study is called ornithology, and the LI NY area has proven to be a productive source of information for ornithologists.
