Birdwatching on Louisiana’s Northshore

Just the thought of catching a glimpse of the rare red-cockaded woodpecker is enough to give birdwatchers goose bumps. The endangered little bird is elusive but it has been seen here on the Northshore, home to a number of bird-rich wildlife refuges and The Great Louisiana Bird Fest. The area is ripe with bird-sighting opportunities year-round. Seasonal visitors include the scarlet tanager, indigo bunting, ruby-throated hummingbirds, and a host of waterfowl species. Resident birds, besides the red-cockaded woodpecker, include great blue herons, great and snowy herons, great egrets, white ibis, numerous hawk species and hundreds, if not thousands, of others.
