The 8,000-acre Bouckaert Farm is the brainchild of Olympian (equestrian) Carl Bouckaert. It is private land in south Fulton County bordered on the west/north by the Chattahoochee River. "Chatt Hills Eventing" is used primarily for high-level equestrian events, but is also a frequent site for movie making. Portions of Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame and Black Panther were filmed on the Farm. Netflix, HBO, Fox, and Paramount have also filmed on the property.

Bouckaert Farm has only been birded a handful of times and just a few times during peak migration with a species total in the low 90s including a half dozen sparrows and more than a dozen different warbler species. Join us as we look to add to this property's species list and explore the varied habitat of riparian woodlands, grassy meadows, mowed fields, ponds, and streams.
