Can you name all of these Lowcountry birds? 🦅

It's and peak bird migration season, and there's never been a better time to get out and go birding here on Hilton Head Island. Get the guide: https://bit.ly/3TfHzMm

Did you know that we're located in the Great Atlantic Flyway? That means we're directly on the route of birds migrating south to warmer areas for the winter. The first half of September is prime time for spotting migrating birds we don't usually see around here!

Think you can name all of these bird species from up close? Leave your guesses in the comments!

The expansion project at SAV is coming along beautifully! When completed, it will add four new gates and feature family restrooms, a pet relief area, and new retail and dining options. We can’t wait to see how it turns out!
