Birding in the Methow Valley

As the snow melts, we are noticing more beautiful birds in the valley. Our area has over 250 species of birds due to the diversity of habitats and elevation contained within the valley walls.

As a visitor you will easily discover Bald Eagles along the river, hear a choir of songbirds, the buzz of the Rufous Hummingbirds and the drumming of Pileating Woodpeckers.

The Washington State Audubon provides a Free Birding Trail Map for the North Cascade Loop. You'll find the best places for bird watching and discover the best spots in Winthrop, Washington.



Great birding can be found within walking distance of River's Edge Resort.
