As part of the vibrant Paint the Town celebration, guests are invited to experience a guided Bird Watching Nature Tour led by Luci Betti Nash of the Four Harbors Audubon Society. Beginning at 10:00 AM and lasting approximately one hour, this peaceful walk along Trustees Road, leading down to the scenic Gamecock Cottage, offers a unique opportunity to connect with the natural beauty that inspires so many of the day’s participating artists.

Open to the public and free of charge, the tour welcomes bird enthusiasts of all levels, from curious beginners to seasoned watchers. Participants will have the chance to observe local bird species in their natural habitat while learning about the area’s rich ecosystem from an experienced guide. Guests are encouraged to bring their own binoculars for the best viewing experience and at the end of the tour, guests are welcomed to take an interior tour of the Gamecock Cottage!

Public restrooms will be available, and the relaxed pace of the tour makes it an accessible and enjoyable addition to the day’s festivities. Whether you’re an avid birder or simply looking to explore the outdoors in a new way, this guided nature walk offers a refreshing and enriching complement to the artistic energy of Paint the Town.
