Minutes from downtown Augusta, Phinizy Swamp Nature Park offers wetlands and habitat edges bursting with birds. We’ll search for Bald Eagles, Black-bellied Whistling Ducks, White Ibis, Least Bitterns, King Rails, and Painted Buntings, as well as migratory warblers. Nearly 250 species of birds have been recorded here and this is a great spot to see American alligators! Note: the Park’s address is 1858 Lock and Dam Road; do NOT follow signs to the Phinizy Swamp Wildlife Management Area.
 
This trip is co-hosted with Augusta-Aiken Audubon Society.
