Prepare to be amazed as you join Bert Pearce for a breathtaking evening of birdwatching. Witness the charming chimney swifts as they perform their nightly spectacle, swirling gracefully around their roost and diving into a chimney—a true marvel of nature! These birds, with their jet-like flight, create a captivating display as they gather in fall evenings before migrating south.

Timing: Approximately 2 hours, scheduled at dusk (for swifts) or in the morning (for Clyde Shepherd).
Location: Atlanta/Decatur area.
Accessibility:Swifts: Short walk/travel on pavement at dusk.
Clyde Shepherd: Gentle walk on dirt path and boardwalk.
Alternate Plan: If the swifts have already migrated (usually early October), enjoy a morning of birding at Decatur’s Clyde Shepherd Nature Preserve.

No special birdwatching equipment is required—just your enthusiasm for nature!

This is a rare chance to witness one of nature’s wonders and gain insights from an experienced birder. Secure your spot and prepare for a memorable experience!
