Long-billed Curlew Sightings

The Long-billed Curlew, a bird of grasslands and prairies, is actually North America's largest "shorebird". Like many other grassland species, numbers have declined across its range during the past few decades. In Montana, it appears there are some areas that still have many curlews, we would like to keep it that way. Grassland conservation can help this bird and many other grassland species. YOU CAN HELP! Please keep your eyes open and ears tuned. If you find Curlews, please consider reporting your observations.


IMPORTANT: When you are ready to mark your point on the map, be sure to turn on the tagger in the upper-righthand corner.
