Ducks, herons, and egrets! Oh my! Take a ride on the electric tram and bird with ease.
Birding park hosts Les and Jane are back! Join them for an exploratory bird *ride* along the shorelines of Goose Island State Park. That's right, the tram is back! We're also changing up the days, so double check your calendar! You'll learn about and identify the birds we see on the route, which includes saltwater marshes, bays, and shorelines with many south Texas specialties likely to be seen.
