- **Event Name**: Ice Fest Winter Wings: Birding at Lake Junaluska
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 01 Feb, 2026 at 09:00 am
- **Event Description**: Experience the quiet magic of winter birding at Lake Junaluska with expert guide Howard during Ice Fest weekend. Join us on January 30th or February 1st at 9:00 AM as winter transforms the lake into a seasonal gathering place for birds found nowhere else in the warmer months, including ducks, grebes, and the occasional loon gliding across open water. Bare trees and calm water also make it an ideal time to spot woodpeckers such as hairy woodpeckers and yellow-bellied sapsuckers, along with winter residents like yellow-rumped warblers and hermit thrushes. With crisp air, reflective water, and a festive Ice Fest atmosphere, these birding walks offer a peaceful and rewarding way to slow down and observe the season.
