 Contact: Abby Jordan Identify Fayette’s Migrating Birds on a Spring Bird Walk Join Fayette County residents on a fun and informative guided Spring Bird Walk hosted by Southern Conservation Trust (SCT), to be held on Saturday, April 17th from 8 am to10 am, spring weather permitting. David Cree, an Audubon bird expert, will lead the nature walk on the Flat Creek Boardwalk and the connecting cart path. He explained, “Each year around tax season Fayette residents can spy birds representing several hundred different species as they travel from the Gulf to summer breeding grounds in the northern U.S. and Canada. We hope to see many colorful birds such as Baltimore Orioles and indigo buntings.” The Trust invites participants of all ages to bring binoculars and meet at 8am Saturday, April 17th next to the Flat Creek Nature Center on McIntosh Trail which is adjacent to the amphitheatre in Peachtree City. Southern Conservation Trust (SCT) is a Peachtree City-based land trust that owns and manages over 600 acres of environmentally sensitive land in Fayette County. The Trust hosts environmental programs and partners with community groups to enhance its nature preserves with trails, overlooks and re-introduction of native species. For more information on this and upcoming the Trust community events, contact Southern Conservation Trust at 770-486-7774 or info@sctlandtrust.org. If the weather is uncertain, call the Trust office Friday April 16th to get an update on the bird walk schedule. |
