Birding and Wildlife Watching in Siskiyou County
Bird watching along the rivers, critters in the wildlife refuges and everywhere around Mount Shasta.
The rich diversity of vegetation, geology, and climate in far northern
California make this area a haven for hundreds of bird species. The

concentration of Bald Eagle in the lower 48 states. Wetlands abound with
waterfowl migrating on the Pacific Flyway during the spring and fall. The free-flowing section of the Klamath River are especially rich in year-round wildlife. Siskiyou County offers excellent birding opportunities for the casual wildlife watcher as well as avid birders.
