Birding at Lake Junaluska

About

Take a stroll around the lake to see what birds you encounter, or drive and observe from popular vantage points, such as Inspiration Point, the Lake Junaluska Cross or the Susanna Wesley Garden.

  • A nesting pair of eagles made Lake Junaluska their home in 2018. Take delight watching them fish on the water and raise their eaglets.
  • Look for resident swans and in April, May and June, their cygnets.
  • Come for bird watching in winter, when flocks of migrating birds call the Lake home. Winter residents include brown creeper, pine siskin, winter wren and fox sparrow.
