As 2021 began, I was feeling listless – in a general sense and in the bird-list sense. So, I challenged myself to see 100 bird species each month, a “century” challenge, because I wanted to get out of the house and be more active, see more birding friends, and become more purposeful in my birding.

You might think that none of the best birdwatching spots are accessible if you don’t have access to a car. Not so in Northern Virginia! Check out our new online list of birding hotspots accessible by public transit.

ASNV is pleased to announce that a new digital picture book on local birds, tailored to beginners, is now available free of charge on the ASNV website.
