Texas Birding
We have found that studying the habitats, food preferences, and migration patterns of birds is thoroughly fascinating. We become more obsessed with birding as we identify each new bird species. Birding is entertainment you can take with you everywhere you go.
We hope you enjoy browsing our collection of bird photos as much as we do. :-)
