Field trips
I have birding trips to exotic places, but I do many day trips in the north Georgia Mountains. If you are interested in birding places like Ivy Log Road, Burrell’s Ford, Hale Ridge, Cartersville, and more, please contact Georgann..
There is no charge for these trips. Confirm that you are joining me with an email.
