Summary
Anchorage just dropped a new online birdwatching trail spotlighting 35 top spots—from Eagle River to Whittier—showcasing the city’s wild biodiversity with nearly 300 species right in town and over 500 across Alaska. Highlights include Westchester Lagoon, Potter Marsh, and the newly crowned Park of the Year, Cheney Lake, a hidden gem teeming with grebes, eagles, and songbirds. Audubon Alaska also unveiled an updated, color-coded bird checklist—the first since 2014—revealing how common (or rare) each species is now, like the European Starling, which has gone from scarce to ubiquitous. Join the ribbon-cutting at Westchester Lagoon this Wed at 5 PM for a bird walk and free brochures—proof that nature’s right in your backyard.
