Reed Bingham State Park is a 1,613 acre (6.53 km2) Georgia state park located near Ellenton. The park surrounds a 375 acre (1.52 km2) lake that has sense become a major tourist attraction in southern Georgia. Inside the park, visitors can hike the 3.5 mile (5.63 km) long Coastal Plains Nature Trail, which goes through a baldcypress swamp, a pitcher plantbog, and sandhill area. The park also contains many unique animals, including the threatened gopher tortoise and the indigo snake. In addition, the park offers exclusive camping and fishing.
Every winter, thousands of the birds swoop down on a statepark in Georgia to perch in its trees or roost by its lake, and curious humans soon follow.
The best times to see the birds are shortly after the park opens at 7 a.m., while the vultures are lounging in the trees and on the banks of the lake, or about an hour before sunset, when they return to roost, Williams said.
ReedBingham has two of the three vulture species found in the United States: turkey and fl.
