This section features articles, stories, and other information about birds on military installations If you have information to submit, please send it to DoD PIF and we will get it posted.
Installations are organized by DoD PIF Regions.
NOTE ON PUBLIC BIRDING ACCESS TO INSTALLATIONS: Availability and publication of a bird checklist does not necessarily imply authorization for public access onto a military installation. We are in the process of compiling a more thorough list of installations that allow individual or group access for birding. Please see each checklist for access details, or contact a DoD Partners in Flight Representative to inquire about a specific location not shown here.
