Okefenokee Refuge Program Bird Activities May 18th
4:56 pm
International Migratory Bird Day Activities May 18 at Okefenokee NWR
Sheila Willis, head of the Okefenokee Bird Club, will lead a driving bird tour down Okefenokee National
Wildlife Refuge’s Swamp Island Drive on Saturday May 18 from 8 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Birders will look
for “hot” species such as the Bachman’s sparrow and the red-cockaded woodpecker, as well as the
screech owls that have been regularly seen. Birders will also be on the lookout for neo-tropical migrant
warblers and nesting resident bird species. Recent birds seen include wood storks, blackpoll warblers,
black-crowned night herons, American redstarts, and swallow-tailed kites.
Willis will also give a slide presentation from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. on “Birds of the Okefenokee.” She will
share her vast experience and knowledge of the local birds.
