πŸ¦… The FIrst Ever Birding Festival is coming to Calhoun County on October 10!
As we count down to the festival, we’re introducing you to some of the feathered residents you might spot around Calhoun County.

🐦 This week’s featured bird: The Red-Bellied Woodpecker!

You may hear this colorful character before you spot it! The Red-Bellied Woodpecker is often seen climbing tree trunks and branches in search of insects, nuts, seeds, and fruit.

❀️ Despite its name, the bright red you’re most likely to notice is on its head. The bird actually gets its name from the soft reddish patch on its belly, which can be surprisingly hard to see!

🌳 Ready to do a little birding of your own? Explore the gardens, nature trails, Alabama Birding Trail and more at Anniston Museums and Gardens:

🎡 Produced locally by Jacksonville State University's Longleaf Studios, this inspiring film follows Owen's journey from his roots on Lookout Mountain and his time at Jacksonville State University to becoming the voice behind one of country music's most iconic bands. It's a story of talent, perseverance, and the Alabama values that never left him.
