Standing Boy Creek Wildlife Management Area

Overview

This is a Wildlife Management Area near Columbus, Georgia. The site attracts rare birds such as the Swainsons warblers, which use dense canebrakes and other thickets in bottomland hardwood forests. These rare birds are neotropical migrants that are rarely seen on migration. They nest earlier than many other migrants and are best surveyed between mid-April and mid-June. Later in the summer they often become much more quiet. All of these characteristics make them significantly more challenging to find.
