Birdwatching at Krusenstern Lagoon

Birding is a great activity to enjoy at Cape Krusenstern

NPS/Emily Mesner

While it is difficult to reach, Cape Krusenstern National Monument offers birders a rare chance to see an amazing variety of birds. Eiders, Bluethroats, and Yellow-billed Loons, rare elsewhere in the United States, are possible to see here. Because the Monument is located at the crossroad of the Asiatic-North American flyway, it is even possible to see Eurasian birds such as Northern Wheatears that are difficult to find elsewhere in North America.
