Bankhead National Forest (Site # 14, Northwest Loop) encompasses 180,000 acres of public land crisscrossed with hundreds of miles of deep canyons, providing an adventurous environment for hours or days of exploration. Habitats in the national forest range from old fields to mature pine and hardwood forests. The area is renowned for its breeding Cerulean Warblers, which can be found in several of the heavily wooded canyon bottoms. Check among the pines for resident Pine Warblers and Brown-headed Nuthatches and explore the trails at night for Chuck-will's-widows and Barred Owls. Bankhead National Forest has so many impressive waterfalls, clear streams, and deep verdant forests to explore that you will surely return time and again. The nature of the Bankhead National Forest, a continuous expanse of forested habitat, is why the American Bird Conservancy designated the Bankhead National Forest as an Important Bird Area.
