Lanoraie is backyard-bird country: 82% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. Black-capped Chickadee, American Goldfinch, Blue Jay and American Crow make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.

21 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Turkey Vulture and Bald Eagle.
