First Cranes Arrive At Refuge

Greetings!

It is Fall and all of our winter visitors are starting to arrive!  We saw one of the first 2 Whooping Cranes  last Friday on a kayak trip up to San Antonio Bay. The White Pelicans are coming in in very large groups that can be seen “kettling” in the thermals. Last weekend we saw large flights of duck battling the strong SE wind flying low very close to the water.  The ospreys are here in large numbers as well. There are 3 in Little Bay alone!

We are doing private trips on the skiff now and will start our season officially the second weekend in November. So come on down and let’s go birding!
