Important Bird Areas
The Important Bird Areas Program (IBA) is a global effort to identify and conserve areas that are vital to birds and other biodiversity. The Michigan Important Bird Areas Program officially began in March 2006 with the hiring of a coordinator by four managing partners: Michigan Audubon, National Audubon, Detroit Audubon Society, and Kalamazoo Nature Center.
For information about the most recently designated sites in Michigan, visit the Michigan IBA BlogSpot or visit the Michigan IBA Support Group Resources page.
