Fall Bird Walk at Sams Lake

Join Fayette County nature lovers on a fun and informative Bird Walk on Saturday, October 8th at 7:45 am. Expert bird caller David Cree will lead the guided walk at the Sams Lake Bird Sanctuary on Old Senoia Road south of Fayetteville.

Though the preserve is not yet open to the public, attendees will get a sneak peak at what is sure to be a popular spot for birders and enjoy learning about the many native and migrating birds on view.

This event is hosted by Southern Conservation Trust and is one of a series of educational programs focusing on local nature and conservation issues. Southern Conservation Trust is a locally-based conservation organization that owns, manages and protects over 600 acres of environmentally sensitive land in Fayette County. As a regional land trust the Trust also works with willing landowners to protect natural areas through conservation options that may provide tax advantages for the landowner.

The Trust invites participants to bring binoculars and meet at the gravel parking lot on Old Senoia Rd, between Harp and Hawn Roads. The walk starts promptly at 7:45 am on Saturday October 8th.
