We are officially in our Centennial Era 💯 After 100 years (and more name changes than HBO Max), Birds Georgia has grown into a statewide leader in conservation, education, and sharing the joy of birds.

Throughout 2026, we’re celebrating our legacy and launching the next 100 years with special events across the state, including: 🪶 Soaring Into Service (MLK Jr. Weekend | Jan 17–19) 🪶 2026 Bird Fest (Apr 10–May 10) 🪶 Bird Fest Summit at the Atlanta Botanical Garden (Apr 26) 🪶 Fall Flyway Festival Round Robin at the State Botanical Garden (Sept 19) 🪶 Birds & Brews events all year long 🍻 We’re also proud to share our Centennial legacy project: the Georgia Birding Trail, a statewide network of birding hotspots designed to protect habitats, boost eco-tourism, and inspire future conservationists. Birds connect us all. Join us in honoring our history – and help us build a future where birds and people thrive. #BirdsGeorgia100 #CentennialCelebration #BirdsGeorgia #BirdConservation
