  • Birds of Mount Greylock Mount Greylock State Reservation INFORMATION GUIDE & SIGHTING LIST
    Birds of Mount Greylock Mount Greylock State Reservation INFORMATION GUIDE & SIGHTING LIST Birds of Mount Greylock is a two-part document. Part 1 is a basic overview of the variety of bird species found in and around Mount Greylock, where you might encounter them in the Reservation. Part 2 is a birding checklist for your records. Part 1 Managed by the Department of Conservation & Recreation (DCR), Mount Greylock State Reservation covers over 12,500 acres of upland habitat. The summit at 3,491 feet above sea level is the highest point in Massachusetts and supports the only sub-alpine ecosystem in the state; one of the southernmost extensions of the boreal or spruce-fir forest, normally associated with Canada. Why go birding? If you want a challenge, camaraderie, fun, passion, beauty, insight, travel, and discovery, go birding. All this aside, humans have certainly altered face of the landscape, sometimes negatively impacting bird habitats. Bird populations, over time, have responded by shifting to more suitable habitats or disappearing altogether from certain areas. Still other species have been either hunted to extinction, their distinctive habitats completely destroyed, affected by pesticides or pollution, or even displaced by competing bird species. There is a widely held belief within the bird watching community is that an interest in birds is often the first step toward building a sound conservation ethic. Birds are sensitive indicators of the health of the environment. It is likely that a popular widespread commitment to their well- being will lead to a greater concern for the quality of the environment on which humans and birds are mutually dependent.
