Do you have a research interest in birds? Do you like birds? Are you a bird-watcher? Do you own a bird? Have you ever seen a bird?

If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, then Birds of North America is the database for you.

From Cornell University, it contains almost everything you would ever need to know about birds in the United States and Canada.

Included are audio clips, photos and figures as well as a bibliography for each entry. In addition, there is information about systematics, migration, habitat, food habits, sounds, behavior, breeding, demographics, conservation and appearance.

This is a great resource. Enjoy!
