Birding with the Library

Sheridan Alford of Birds Georgia will lead a walk through Chattahoochee Pointe Park and show you how to identify local birds while learning about bird conservation and birding tips & tricks. Novice and aspiring birders will especially benefit from the program, but all bird lovers are welcome! Binoculars will be provided by Birds Georgia, or you are welcome to bring your own.

Please bring water and wear suitable footwear and clothing. In the case of inclement weather, the program will be moved inside to the Sharon Forks Library.
