Bird Watching in southwest New Mexico

The New Mexico Game and Fish Department has created the New Mexico Birding Trail which covers 40 sites in southwest New Mexico. It can be viewed in PDF format and is broken up by sites. A preview of the introduction follows:

We have chosen more than 40 sites of the most attractive birding locations throughout southwest New Mexico. A guide has been created that includes maps, birding tips, site descriptions and contact information that should help you easily identify birding sites.
This project was created by the efforts of New Mexico Department of Game and Fish, New Mexico Audubon Society and Council, New Mexico Department of Tourism, U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, The Nature Conservancy, U.S. Forest Service, and the New Mexico Rural Economic Development Through Tourism.
This is a great way for people to get out and enjoy New Mexico’s diversity and abundance of bird life as well as learn about the locations for various wildlife activities.
