Gigantic carvings of four revered presidents on a cliff face are not the only draws to Mount Rushmore National Memorial. Many birds live within and around this area, including the cheerful orange and yellow western tanager.
"Majestic figures of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln, surrounded by the beauty of the Black Hills of South Dakota, tell the story of the birth, growth, development and preservation of this country. From the history of the first inhabitants to the diversity of America today, Mount Rushmore brings visitors face to face with the rich heritage we all share."
