Nevada Bird Resources

Welcome to Northwest Nevada Bird Alliance's resource hub! This page is focused on helping people in northern Nevada learn about birds through some of the many online resources that are available.
​​
EBird, maintained by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, is a great tool that birders use to list their bird sightings online. This program uses your data to update the information on Nevada's birds! You can also check out our eBird profile to see recent bird lists from our field trips. In addition, the NVBIRDS Listserv is an interactive email group that posts ongoing sightings of birds throughout our state and this is a great way to interact with and learn from other local birders.
