The Wildlife Overlook
Located on Stede Bonnet is a favorite stop for all. A variety of migratory birds including the Snowy Egret, White Heron, White Ibis, and Grand Egret are commonly spotted at dusk and roost there for the evening. It is common for over 50 birds until daybreak when they often depart in unison to embark on another day.
During the summer months, BHI Conservancy Members may join the award-winning Sea Turtle Protection team for a nightly Turtle Walk to learn about the extraordinary nesting process and hopefully catch a glimpse of a hatching!
Stargazing
BHI continues to make the yearly “best stargazing locations in NC” list. Due to the lack of light pollution thanks to the banning of artificial exterior lighting on beachfront homes, constellations, meteor showers, and the Milky Way can be seen regularly. Some think seeing a shooting star is a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence but it’s commonplace on the island. After dark head to the beach for a few amazing hours of stargazing.
