Description:: Encyclopedia article about birds of Georgia. Birds, more than any other vertebrate (an animal with a backbone), dominate Georgia's landscapes. The state's diversity of habitats and physical features, from the northern mountains to the swamps and coastal islands, provides habitats for approximately 347 species of birds that live in Georgia at some point during their lifetimes. Between 90 and 110 species breed and nest in south Georgia. This number increases in north Georgia to almost 130 nesting birds. The study of birds, also called ornithology, began as early as 1723 in Georgia.
