New East Sites Added in 2008
In March 2008, 47 locations were selected by the steering committee and the Florida Fish &
Wildlife Conservation Commission to be part of the Great Florida Birding Trail. These sites are
listed below. Sites marked as "WAV" are not primary GFBT sites, but are designated as "Worth a
Visit" sites if you are already in the area.
A new guide booklet for the East Section of the GFBT is in progress. We anticipate the guide will
be available by the end of 2010.
