This site is best for migrating songbirds. There is a bird blind at the north end that has a water drip. adjacent to a small pond. Outside of migration wintering Palm Warbler and Swamp Sparrows use the site. If the site is undisturbed its not uncommon to find a roosting Great Horned Owl in the the trees. 

Migrant songbirds

This is a small woodlot creation project that was started in the early 1980's and has had several enhancements since then. in 2022 a large number of additional trees were planted and should begin to support more migrant songbirds in the coming years.

Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1963 to provide wintering and migration habitats for ducks and geese. We protect the coastal marsh for migratory and resident waterfowl, shorebirds, and waterbirds. The refuge is one of three refuges in the Texas Chenier Plain Wildlife Refuge Complex, and one of a string of wildlife refuges situated on the Gulf of Mexico. We are a designated Globally Important Bird Area, Monarch Waystation, and a Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network Site of International Importance. The 37,000-acre refuge is located on the Texas Gulf Coast just outside the Houston, Texas metropolitan area. 

There is no fee to visit the refuge. This refuge is very large and most of it is roadside accessible, however, there are also a few walking trails and a boat launch. As with most hotspots in this area, visitors should be adequately prepared for mosquitos and be alert for venomous snakes and spiders.
