Travel Birding

Birds have a typical range where they are commonly located, and rarely leave that range.  For example, the Green Jay's range doesn't extend north of Texas, so a person from the northern US would need to travel south to Texas if they wanted to see a Green Jay.  

Most people do some amount of traveling throughout the year.  If you're going to be traveling for other reasons (work, vacation, wedding, etc.), why not add birding to your itinerary?  Birding doesn't have to be the primary reason for your travel, it can be an added benefit.

One of the nice things about birding is that you can do it anywhere.  If you have some travel locations in mind, look into what birds are in that area.  If there is a particular bird you want to see, look into where you could travel to see it.   Considering travel birding when planing your next trip.

Many birds migrate, so time of year is an important consideration.  If there's a specific bird you want to see, understanding that bird's migration range can provide you with travel destinations for different seasons.  If there's a specific destination you're considering traveling to, knowing the types of birds present in during the different season could help determine when to visit.

Travel birding is simply traveling to a different location and birding.
