The Birds You Might See In Arkansas
By Lin Stone
The birds listed here are the most common ones you MIGHT find in Arkansas throughout the entire year. I've seen hundreds of brown pelicans here plumped down in one spot, but you aren't likely to see brown pelicans here because that was a one day event and they were gone when I came back in less than an hour. I don't know how they got here and I don't know why they came.
The list is in alphabetical order instead of being arranged by groups. Remember that birds vary by habitat. For example: Ducks will always be found near water. The more water there is, the more ducks there might be. Geese prefer to graze AND have water nearby. They are more likely to be found in open fields, preferably GRAIN fields. In Arkansas you never really know what kind of habitat you'll see in the next ten miles. Will it be wetland, open field, plain, hill, mountain, valley, stream, river, pond, lake or meadow. That's good. You won't get bored in Arkansas.
