Bird Walk Field Trip at Murphey Candler Park

Discover the diverse bird species of Brookhaven with Birds Georgia. This guided walk offers the chance to explore habitats including a lake, wetlands, mixed woods, and ball fields, providing excellent opportunities for birdwatching. Whether you're an experienced birder or just getting started, enjoy a morning of nature and discovery.

This site can be especially good for beginning birders. Some of the trails are level, but there are several steep spots and a few stretches where the surface is uneven from exposed tree roots, etc. Many parts of the trail are muddy and/or slippery after rains; plan your footwear accordingly. Restrooms are available at the SE and SW corners of the park, near the baseball fields.

Drive to 1st large parking on SW corner of lake - 1636 West Nancy Creek Dr (approximate address - corner of Candler Lake West NE and West Nancy Creek Dr NE)
