Birding
Minot, North Dakota is for the birds . . . and birders!
Located in the middle of five National Wildlife Refuges Minot is a birder's paradise.
Birding in Minot and the Minot area gives you the unique opportunity to experience the quiet stillness only the prairies can bring. Silence interrupted only by the song of birds and passing wildlife.
