Spring birds in California
California's extraordinary habitat range—from Pacific coastline to Sierra peaks to Mojave Desert—supports the highest bird diversity of any U.S. state. During spring, bird activity is shaped by migration and nesting along the Pacific Flyway.
Where to look
Explore coastal, desert, forest, wetland, urban habitat, including Point Reyes National Seashore and Salton Sea.
Observation timing
Early morning is usually most productive. Watch woodland edges, flowering gardens, wetlands, and migration stopovers.
