Birding at Bass Lake - 2026-1025

Birding at Bass Lake and Sugg Farm (Bass Lake Park)
Join Wake Audubon for a Bird Outing at Bass Lake and Sugg Farm on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2026, at 8:15.
TENTATIVE DATE - CHECK BACK BY OCTOBER 1.
Please sign up for this walk, as we try to limit this to 25 birders.
--> NOTE: No Turnipseed birdwalk in August: birds are molting, silent, and it tends to be our hottest month.
Leader is Jessica Williams ([email protected], 913-424-5062).
RSVP opens October 1 at 7 am.

This 2+ mile walk on unpaved trails begins at 8:15 and ends approximately 10:30 (and often later). The park opens at 8 am. The address is 900 Bass Lake Road, Holly Springs, NC (note that this is the main parking lot, not the smaller lot on another road). Meet on the trail near the restrooms. We will walk the east side of Bass Lake, then take the trail to Sugg Farm, then return to the Bass Lake parking lot. The trail can be a tad soggy after heavy rains.

You don't need an ebird.org account to participate - but ebird is a great way to keep track of what you have seen (and it helps scientists note the location and abundance of bird populations). The Leader will make and share an ebird.org checklist and share it with your ebird account. Keeping your own individual list is discouraged because this duplicates the data, but you can edit your list once it's shared to you.
Let's Go Birding!
