Connecticut Bird Atlas: Learn More

The Atlas will help show whether maps like this, which predict the occurrence of Red-bellied Woodpeckers based on modeling, need to be updated. Here, the warmer colors indicate where the woodpeckers are more likely to occur. This map and the other predictive maps in the Connecticut State of the Birds 2017 report are by Valerie Steen et al., University of Connecticut.

We hope to have as many of our 19 sanctuaries as possible included in the areas surveyed by the Connecticut Bird Atlas.

We are also scheduling training and information sessions for Atlas organizers and participants.
