Nueces County Is Named "Birdiest" County On The Gulf Coast

PORT ARANSAS, Texas - The Corpus Christi Caller Times reported yesterday that we remain one of the "birdiest" places in the US.

"Local birders from the Audubon Outdoor Club of Corpus Christi and Coastal Bend Audubon Society counted 217 species in Corpus Christi within a three-day period, down from 241 spotted in 2008. San Diego, Calif., placed second with 198 species counted. Nueces County was named the Birdiest Coastal County with 238 species spotted, down from 253 spotted last year."

Nature tourism has been on the rise in Port Aransas. The local Chamber of Commerce features a dedicated section of their website to offer information on local birding sites. Check out the Port Aransas Chamber of Commerce website or download a pdf of the Birds & Nature brochure which shows the best birdwatching sites in the area. The complete Caller Times article is available here.

Great post Keith, Yes, I love birds just like most people who live in the Hill Country. We have a lot fo birds migrating through our area coming to yours.

I have always heard everyone talk about the birds down there...

guess I was always too busy with the beach to check them out..

maybe next time!

Don't forget the Hummer/Bird Celebration coming up in Rockport, TX in mid September!!! Lots of great speakers from all over the country, vendors with wonderful bird stuff, Hummer homes and bandings, trips to viewing areas, etc....something for all. Contact the Rockport Fulton Chamber of Commerce for info on the Celebration and the area or call me at 361-463-9301 or dee@theYteam.com and I will have info sent direct to you from the Chamber.
