Buckley Sanctuary and Audubon Center
The Clyde E. Buckley Sanctuary promotes native flora and fauna,
and provides active education. Thousands of students, teachers
and families attend presentations every year, or take a leisurely
stroll among these pleasant rural surroundings. Events calendar.
The Sanctuary consists of 374 acres along the Kentucky River, in
Woodford and Franklin Counties. Habitats include about 50
acres of fields, and two ponds surrounded by mixed-mesophytic
forest on the transition zone between northern and southern
flora and fauna. A gorge bisects the area; the subsurfaces are
limestone and rich in minerals and fossils.
This Sanctuary is the only area in Kentucky managed by the
National Audubon Society.
