In this episode of Part Time Parkers, hosts Rebecca and Bernie take viewers on a journey through Lake Point State Park in Eufaula, Alabama, for Day 3 of their 3 days of the Fins, Feathers, and Flowers program. We are joined by special guest, Naturalist Hillary Bryan from Gulf Park, another Alabama State Park. They participate in bird watching at Whaley Conservation Center and encounter a variety of bird species despite challenging weather conditions.
