The recently published Eastern Pennsylvania Birding & Wildlife Guide is now available for free! This colorful book provides all the information you need to seek out, identify, and enjoy eastern Pennsylvania’s unique fauna.  The result of a unique partnership between the Schuylkill River Heritage Area, the Lehigh Gap Nature Center, the D&L, and others, the guide highlights not only unique birding sites but also the wide range of recreational opportunities available at nearly 90 public facilities across two heritage areas.  Although birders will love the countless photos, hikers, bikers, and walkers will also find this guide an essential source for locating fresh ground for exploration.

The book is available free for pickup at the D&L offices (2750 Hugh Moore Park Rd. in Easton) or the following locations:
