Birding with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension


April 29 – May 2, 2021 This is a unique Texas birding experience that connects birders with landowners! At Birding the Border, participants get access to private ranches and other restricted sites as we search for a wide variety of species in three different ecoregions.		May 29 – June 5, 2021 A new program just for youth! We will travel throughout southwest Texas to a wide variety of ecosystems, seeking everything from colima warblers to Morelet’s seedeaters to black-capped vireos! Along the way, we’ll learn about Texas’ ecology, history, and culture.		West Texas: Oct. 8-11, 2021 East Texas: Oct. 13-15, 2021 A program for new and beginning birders to take their skills to the next level!
