Hebbronville--Our Lady of Guadalupe Cemetery

Hebbronville, Texas 78361

Tips for Birding

This cemetery is on the south side of State Highway 285 near the intersection with Farm-to-Market Road 1017, east of Hebbronville. 

Walk the outside fence lines, particularly the eastern and southern fences, which appear to have the better hedgerow-type habitat and/or are farther away from both highways to facilitate birding by ear.

About this Location

There are two entrances.

One is on the east side of the cemetery off State Highway 285. 

The other one is on the west of the cemetery near the corner of SH 285 and FM 1017. The west entrance is close to a U.S. Border Patrol checkpoint. During one recent visit, there were no negative impacts from being close to a checkpoint.

From the east entrance, one might consider walking the fence line which has good brush/shrub cover.

The south fence line also has some good brush/shrub cover.
