It was nice to go on this trail. I didn't get to see a lot of species unfortunately. I think the place could use some renovating and hopefully it gets more visitors so they can continue with having this nature site. Bring bug repellent but if you forget, they're nice to have plenty.
Great place to visit while Birding the South Texas Coast. Easy hike through a wooded area. Check the hours before going.
I am sure this is a fantastic place in normal years . With no water the number of birds other than vultures is way down. Place needs some upkeep and maintenance. If you have to pay to see it it should be kept up. $5 to get in each. Only reason not two stars is at our last ditch effort one more stop we saw a lifer bird . A female crimson Groesbeck. So win. If they get some water I will be back and give it another try.
First visit here from recommendations by RGV birders. It was a cloudy day and I didn’t see many birds, however a lot of butterflies. None of the ponds had water due to the drought. Sad to see. Clear paths for easy walking nice price of $4 for seniors. Bathrooms inside were clean
Amazing place to watch/find birds/lizards and other wildlife. I was so lucky to see 3 baby armadillos during my visit as well. Such a great oasis for wildlife! Lots of shade for hot sunny days as well.
Very beautiful experience with the different kind of birds also our Catholic retreat ment. The sound of the water falling from there, the birds singing, the squirrels running with the seeds, everything was so beautifully, we have this nature in our city and we have yo enjoy what God has given us. Definitely I will comeback again to get the family membership.
I waa blown away by the sheer beauty of this place. There are a LOT of places to go birdwatching in the valley and this is definitely one of, if not the best places to go. In just a few afternoon hours I saw: turkey vultures, Harris' hawks, white tailed hawks, coopers' hawks, green jays, northern cardinals, woodpeckers, kingfishers, various hummingbirds, flycatchers, warblers, earless lizards, brown and green anoles, an abundance of butterflies, rose bellied lizards and beautiful scenery. The trails are all very well maintained, with bridges and scenic overlooks located throughout the park. Several birdfeeders, ponds, watering holes and varied flora cover the park. Just make sure to bring mosquito repellant. I forgot mine and luckily they had some for free at the front desk but I would still bring some because there are hoardes of mosquitoes there and they will ruin the experience. Overall I highly recommend, it's super close to the valley nature center and estero llano grande as well!
