Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refugehttp://mississippisandhillcrane.fws.gov/The Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge is one of more than 500 national wildlife refuges administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It was established in 1975 to safeguard the critically endangered Mississippi sandhill crane and its unique disappearing habitat... Noxubee NWRhttp://noxubee.fws.gov/Noxubee Refuge is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife refuge located in northeast Mississippi. The refuge includes two large lakes, Loakfoma and Bluff, that attract shorebirds in migration, herons and egrets in the summer, and thousands of ducks in the winter. A colony of an estimated 30,000 cattle egrets and ibis, herons, and egrets nest on Bluff Lake. In addition, the refuge includes 35 clusters of red-cockaded woodpeckers, a bird listed on the endangered species list. The RCW clusters also attract nesting bachman`s sparrows, pine warblers, and brown-headed nuthatches. Two clusters are convenient for visitors. One cluster is only one-quarter mile away at Woodpecker Trail, and a second is located on Douglas Bluff Road, just about hundred yards from bathroom facilities.
Travelling Birder 1998 [May] - Mary Beth Stowehttp://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/maybank/USA/Multi/US-multi-05-98-H.htmFor not starting the birding day until midday, it wasn`t a bad day at all! Left Lake Charles in the fog, but it had lifted by the time I crossed that wonderful swamp that I-10 passes through; Little Blue Herons dotted the skies like crows! Thought I might have had an Anhinga, but didn`t get a very good look, and knew I`d undoubtedly run into them later (if I don`t, something`s wrong here, folks!)

Coast Birdshttp://www.geocities.com/coastbirds/On this site I am collecting arrival and departure records of migrants and rare species on the Mississippi Coast. I want to see when each species arrives and departs this region based on historical records. This will allow birders to compare, to a certain degree, the importance of the observations we make each year. Was our sighting noteworthy because it was early or late? Was migration on-time this year? How are arrivals or departures changing over time? When have rare species primarily occurred? When might we make a concerted effort to look for any given species on the Mississippi Checklist?
