Humboldt County is a birder's and nature lover's paradise. We have the world's tallest trees, miles of unspoiled coastline, and lots of public land including a national park, 13 state parks, and a national wildlife refuge. The wildlife viewing opportunities are incredible; for instance, almost 470 bird species have been seen here, more than in most states! At any time of year, it is possible to see over 100 in a day. Seals, whales, otters, elk, and bears are also abundant. Let me share them with you!
