An essential guide to accessible birding in all lower 48 states—the first comprehensive resource of its kind for bird lovers with disabilities, illnesses, or injuries
One of the biggest obstacles for disabled birders is knowing which locations will meet their access needs. A Field Guide to Accessible Birding in the United States provides details on more than 200 accessible trails, stationary birding locations, and car birding opportunities, enabling disabled birders to make informed decisions about visiting. Organized by state, each entry addresses a variety of access features, and every location was visited by the author to ensure accuracy and reliability. Whether you’re a wheelchair hiker, a birder living with an injury or chronic illness, or a parent who struggles to find sites where you can easily push a stroller, this guide is your passport to discovering amazing, accessible places to enjoy birds. Nondisabled birders, too, will appreciate this collection of awe-inspiring birding experiences from across the country.
