Does anyone know where I could find any information regarding Faerunian druids and their groves?

Is there a list anywhere?

Depends on the particular druidic circle and their patron deity. I'ld recommend Faiths and Pantheons to start with in a general sort of way. If you have something more specific in mind I could throw in some more suggestions.

Most Shadowdale sources have some information on the Druid's Grove, while the Moonshaes books feature some tidbits about drudic groves in that region.

Nothing specific yet. I'll do some reading and get back to you if I need to. I'm really just looking for any information, nothing specific.

If I recall correctly, Magic of Faerun had a section? Or maybe it was its web enhancement?

Yeah, there it is:

FRCS is the 2001 Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting book.

Look at the write-ups of druidic gods in Faiths & Avatars; there's good general material on druid groves in FA1 Halls of the High King.

I never compiled a list, but on most of my maps I had them marked.

For Druid Groves and Standing-Stones (a'la Stonehenge) I used a 'paw print' as an icon for 'places of (natural) power'.

At one point I lumped Ancestor-mounds into that, but then I went back to marking them separately (Ancestor-mounds be more related to shamans then druids).

I have some advice, don't ever fish or urinate in their ponds.
Seriously, just don't.

I'll add bathing too...they seriously don't like goblin blood being washed off a dwarf into their pools.
The Old Grey Box and AD&D for me!
