The Biggest Week in American Birding site guide library is full of resources helps share information about one of the most popular aspects of the festival. In these site guides, you will find information about the locations the trips visit, accessibility information, meeting locations, target species, and how to get your eBird checklists following the trip. When there are QR codes in the guide, point your phone camera at them and tap to open the link.
