Ten Wiregrass Counties come together this November to launch the Wiregrass Birding Trail. The newly developed trail of 20 sites is the last of eight organized trails, and 250 sites, covering Alabama. The ten counties that make up the Wiregrass Birding Trail are Barbour, Bullock, Pike, Crenshaw, Covington, Coffee, Dale, Henry, Geneva and Houston. Eufaula has 4 of the sites out of the total of 20 sites in the region. An ongoing project for over 5 years, trail development has coincided with birding becoming an increasingly important source of tourism revenue for Alabama.
Alabama has perhaps the most diverse habitat in the Southeast, with a tremendous range of birds that can be seen in the state and certainly on the Wiregrass Birding Trail.
