2022 Birding in the United States

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recently published 2022 Birding in the United States, an addendum to its 2022 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation that explores the demographics and economics of birding in the United States.

In addition to providing information about the characteristics of birders, the report also provides estimates of the economic impacts of birding across the country. Along with helping readers to understand how to communicate with birders, data from the report may also help support requests for funding bird-related events and activities.
