Birdwatching at FENCE
Birdwatching is a wonderful way to slow down, explore, and connect with the natural world. At FENCE, our wooded trails, open spaces, and changing seasons offer opportunities to discover the birds that call the foothills home, along with those passing through during migration. Whether you're an experienced birder or simply curious about the wildlife around you, there's always something new to see, hear, and learn at FENCE.
FENCE is proud to partner with Kevin Burke of Carolina Nature Tours for seasonal guided bird walks throughout the year. Whether you're new to birding or an experienced birder, Kevin's walks provide a fun and educational opportunity to discover the incredible birdlife found at FENCE.
Be sure to check our Calendar of Events for upcoming bird walks and special birding programs.
