The Charleston Museum’s Dill Sanctuary is a 580 acre wild preserve located along the Stono River that is home to a wide array of birdlife.  A six acre wildlife pond with three nesting islands attracts numerous wading birds, including threatened wood storks, while maintained fields, surrounded by woodland, provide habitat for songbirds, wild turkeys and raptors.  Join the Charleston Natural History Society, a local chapter of the National Audubon Society, for a guided tour of the Dill Sanctuary.  Learn more about the birdlife that call the Dill Sanctuary home or that are passing through during migration.
