State Road 976, locally known as Bird Road, is a commercially important route extending eastward from the Homestead Extension of Florida's Turnpike (SR 821) in Westwood Lakes, Florida to U.S. Route 1 (SR 5) in Miami, running south of downtown Miami in Miami-Dade County, Florida. Its length is a subject for debate as there is no definitive indication as to the exact location of its western terminus and there is no SR 976 signage east of West 37th Avenue (Douglas Road) in Miami. According to the Florida Department of Transportation, the length is approximately eight miles.

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or road:
“And the one bird singing alone to his nest,
And the one star over the tower.
I thought of our little quarrels and strife,
And the letter that brought me back my ring;
And it all seem’d then, in the waste of life,”
—“Owen” “Meredith” (1831–1891)
“Wherever there is a channel for water, there is a road for the canoe.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
