Birding in Southwest Missouri
Southwest Missouri offers a variety of ecological landscapes and habitats that attract a wide diversity of birds.
Prairies, glades, hardwood forests, savannahs, lakes and wetlands, and transition "edges" are found in Southwest Missouri.
Each of these landscape types provides essential habitat for different suites of birds and other wildlife. Prairie Warblers, Painted Buntings,
and Greater Roadrunners are found on glades, while native prairies are home to Greater Prairie Chickens, Henslow's Sparrows, and Upland Sandpipers.
If you would like to join GOAS members on one of our field trips, view or download the Field Trip Schedule.
