Private lands BirdIng Trail
Birds Georgia is developing a state-wide Private Lands Birding Trail to increase access to private lands for birders and other recreational wildlife viewers. The goals are to promote recreational access that enables land stewards to showcase their lands while simultaneously enabling birders to learn more about habitat management. Additionally, given that Georgia is over 90% privately owned, this also provides a unique opportunity to increase our knowledge of bird species distribution and habitat use in the state, especially for declining and cryptic species. Birders and wildlife viewers will be encouraged to use citizen science platforms like eBird and iNaturalist to document their flora and fauna observations.
If you are a landowner interested in having your property become part of the Private Lands Birding Trail, please fill out the survey form below. This form is not a commitment or an application but will allow us to gather preliminary information and provide updates on trail development. If you are a birder interested in using the trail, please stay tuned for updates provided in our newsletter and on our social media channels.
If you have any questions, please email Heather Levy, Stewardship Coordinator.
