When Audubon North Carolina assumed full management of Pine Island on the northern Outer Banks two years ago, the organization became the steward of one of the last remnants of the storied Currituck Sound landscape.
Throughout the year, the public is invited to enjoy the birds and wildlife at the Sanctuary with special education programs.
Spring arrives every year in North America on the wings of millions of migratory birds returning from their wintering grounds in Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and South America to their northern nesting grounds in the United States
As part of its Flyway-centered Strategic Plan, Audubon is addressing the threat of climate change through an initiative called Shaping a Healthy Climate and Clean Energy Future.
The Audubon sanctuary is part of the Currituck Marshes-Pine Island Important Bird Area, which is made up of an extensive system of marshes, creeks, channels and open water.
Pine Island promises to be a unique experience of the wildness of Currituck Sound and its unparalleled marshes, maritime forests, birds, and other wildlife.
Located at the intersection of numerous bird migration tributaries, Pine Island provides a green sanctuary for vast numbers of migrating songbirds and waterfowl that pass through the area in the spring and fall looking for a safe haven to rest and refuel.
