To begin planning your tour -

ONE All our Custom Guided Nature Tours are built especially for you so every location will work for every level of ability in birding experience and fitness.

TWO As for location, we generally find -

  • Everyone loves Lost Maples in Vanderpool; that's where it all began for us

  • South LLano River State Park in Junction has the BEST and easily accessible blinds in all of Texas. They offer a great opportunity for beginning birders and those wanting to focus (pun intended) on photography.

  • Uvalde has a desert-y habitat, with many different birds from the nearby Hill Country locations. Our Target 100 Challenge is a multi-day tour to trips leverage this fact and try to rack up 100 species in 2 days.

  • Of course, these are just a few suggestion. We regularly bird in a 100-mile circle from Bandera County roughly bordered by Uvalde, Junction and San Antonio and will create a tour that fits you.

Sharing our vision ... quite literally !

To be sure you see what we are seeing, we have quality binoculars for use during our guided interpretative tours and beginning birding classes. We are happy to show you how to calibrate them for your eyes, use them to see birds, clean 'em and more. Travelers, this leaves more room in your luggage for souvenirs. And yes, we are BIRD NERDS!

PS. Vortex Triumph : Great binocs to get started! Grab a pair at Kerrville Wild Birds Unlimited for just $99 ... but we promise - the performance seems like a million dollars. They come with Vortex's legendary no questions lifetime warranty! What else is there to consider? Just go for it!
