Aug 20 Saturday
Folks who love bullies (the four-legged kind) won't want to miss out on Bama Bully Rescue's 11th annual Beer, Bands & Bullies event. It's scheduled for Saturday, August 20, 2022, at Ferus Artisan Ales in Trussville, AL. We started this music festival way back in 2011 (with a year off in 2020 - yikes, what a year that was!) We knew then, and we know now, that folks who love their bullies love to show them off, and they cannot wait to socialize with other folks who know bullies are family. Throw in ice cold beer and some great music, and now you’ve got yourself a party!
For just a $10 donation (kids under 12 are free), attendees get:
- A Bama Bully Rescue koozie- Tickets to win one of our wonderful door prizes- Five hours of music, including DJ Lee J, Blind the Sky, Mark Mizzell and Friends, and Local Honey- The opportunity to bid on a huge selection of silent auction items- Up close and personal conversation and kisses with our Adopt-a-Bulls- Discounted prices on a huge variety of Bama Bully Rescue merchandise!
All friendly, leashed dogs are always welcome to attend Bama Bully Rescue events! Please remember a few rules though:
- NO RETRACTABLE LEASHES! PLEASE!- Kid and dog friendly dogs only.- No females in heat, please.- Have clear identification on your pup, or better yet, get them microchipped!
For questions, please contact events@bamabully.org.

Birders and nature lovers from across the United States and Canada flock to south Alabama every year to experience one of the prime birdwatching opportunities on the Gulf Coast during fall migration. More than 370 bird species have been spotted at various locations along the Alabama coast, and BirdFest guides expertly lead attendees on boat and walking trips to some of the best birding spots in the area, including locations along the Alabama Coastal Birding Trail.
Alabama Coastal BirdFest takes attendees into the Mobile Delta, to the Dauphin Island Bird Sanctuary, historic Fort Morgan, and the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge, among other locations. The four-day event also includes workshops on subjects such as hummingbirds, the basics of birding, monarch butterflies, and, new this year, workshops on how to use common birding apps, such as eBird and Merlin Bird ID, and understanding bird box design for specific species. A free family-friendly Bird and Conservation Expo will be held at 5 Rivers Delta Resource Center on the Saturday of BirdFest. The Expo highlights other local non-profits and environmental agencies, hands-on activities, and short boat cruises lead by a junior birder!
Since 2004, BirdFest has raised more than $100,000 to help preserve and protect vital coastal bird and wildlife habitat and increase the awareness of the great biological diversity of the Alabama Gulf Coast.
Registration opens online August 1, 2022, at southalabamalandtrust.org
