Nestled along the Atlantic Flyway, the Chesapeake Bay is a pivotal point along the avian migratory route stretching from the Arctic to South America. Enthusiastic birdwatchers flock to this renowned destination, drawn from all corners of the globe. They come in pursuit of elusive migratory treasures, such as grosbeaks, buntings, orioles, tanagers, cuckoos, and warblers, particularly during the peak migration seasons of spring and fall.
Even during the serene winter months, the Eastern Shore remains a sanctuary for a diverse array of avian residents. Here, you can encounter year-round locals like the majestic Pileated Woodpecker, the vibrant Yellow-shafted Flicker, and the charming Ruby-Crowned Kinglet. Additionally, the region welcomes temporary visitors, including the elegant Snow Goose and the enchanting Dark-eyed Junco, all against the backdrop of its varied coastal habitats.
