What birds live in the Bay watershed?
Because of the diversity of food and habitats found in the Bay region, a wide variety of birds live and visit the area. From raptors like ospreys and bald eagles to waterfowl like ducks and geese, dozens of species of birds coexist in forests, wetlands, along shorelines and on the water. The Chesapeake region is also an important stop along the Atlantic Flyway for migratory birds during their fall and spring flights.
