Mississippi Flyway

The Mississippi Flyway is named for the great river underpinning the migration route followed by 60 percent of North America's birds, including the American White Pelicans, Least Terns, and Prothonotary Warblers. By restoring habitat from the headwaters of the Mississippi to the Louisiana Delta, Audubon is protecting birds year-round.

Central Flyway

Stretching from the Rocky Mountains to the Great Plains to the desert Southwest and the western Gulf Coast, the Central Flyway comprises more than half of the continental U.S.'s land mass and includes 509 Important Bird Areas. Across this expansive flyway, such iconic bird species as the Greater Sage Grouse, Sandhill Crane, and Yellow-billed Cuckoo drive Audubon's work to protect threatened ecosystems.
