Birds & Battlefields Evening Tour - Wednesday, Feb 5th

The South Texas Coastal area is filled with rich natural and cultural history. The lomas, prairies, and shorelines of the Lower Laguna Madre coastal area have been environments that have both, nourished an incredibly interesting diversity of wildlife and have also hosted significant war battles that had major impacts on the shaping and social history of the United States.

Join our duo of guides, SPI Birding & Nature Center’s Naturalist Educator, Javier Gonzalez, and fellow Texas Master Naturalist and local historian, Rolando Garza, on a fun and educational evening tour of important historical battle sites! Participants will enjoy the flora and fauna of the area while also learning about the interesting history of the battles that took place there.

The tour will end with a special opportunity to enjoy the Rio Grande River close to where it meets the Gulf of Mexico.

Tour will go out rain or shine, in the event of extremely bad weather the tour will be rescheduled for Wednesday, Feb 12th.

Binoculars will be available to borrow during this tour. 

Tour leaves from and returns to the South Padre Island Birding & Nature Center.
