National Audubon Society: Audubon Guide to North American Birds

Curated by ACT

A huge database of North American birds which can be searched within a taxonomic family as well as by region. Each bird is accompanied by high-quality photos, audio recordings, a map of its distribution and migration areas, and information about conservation status, habitat, diet, nesting, etc. And if you scroll down the page, there are links to similar birds and, for some, news articles that have been written about it.
