Coastfest first then the birding festival







Coastfest is the Saturday October 6, before Georgia’s Colonial Coast Birding & Nature Festival. It is put on by Department of Natural Resources Coastal Resource Division. Lea King and her group invite environment organization from up and down the coast to have an exhibit. Our Coastal Georgia Audubon has always had a booth. For year Chris Daughtry has reclaim old oak palettes and turned them into bluebird house kits. At Coastfest we invite children to build a very nice bluebird house. It is a very popular booth. For the past two years we have tried to get information out about birds and the environment.
So this year we added information about binoculars plus where to go birding. The weather the few days before was ominous. The rain was threatening to ruin Coastfest. We were all relieved to see a great day with a great crowd. The 5th Annual Georgia’s Colonial Coast Birding & Nature Festival is just around the corner now! We are going to pick up and run with the wonderful energy of Coastfest. See you there.
