Birding on the Hill

Description

Take a scenic half-mile hike along the Fox Hill Trail to the stunning overlook at the top of the hill. Once you arrive, our knowledgeable naturalist will guide you through spectacular bird viewing at the peak of spring migration. Pause to listen and watch for a dazzling variety of migratory and resident birds—and keep an eye out for other wildlife that calls this habitat home. As an essential stopover site along the Atlantic Flyway, the sanctuary attracts an impressive array of species, including warblers, Bobolinks, Purple Martins, Eastern Kingbirds, and Tree Swallows. Come and go as you please—stop in anytime and stay as long as you'd like.
