Birding at Pecan Acres Park is ideal on mornings in the spring. On days with good migration weather, migrants may arrive in mid or late morning. Check the canopies of the pecan trees and try to follow mixed flocks of passerines. Listen for chickadees and titmice to locate mixed flocks. Work the edges of the pecan grove, as some of the more dense woodland species like Blue-winged Warbler and Swainson's Thrush may be present here. 

Listen for the "yank yank" call of White-breasted Nuthatch which are regular here. In Spring, look for a large Red-shouldered Hawk nest near the large bridge.

Neotropical migrants, especially warblers, orioles, tanagers, and vireos.

Pecan Acres Park (colloquially called "Pecan Park") is a 23-acre park located in Nacogdoches near the Stephen F. Austin State University campus. It is known for its rows of pecan trees and short-mowed grass with trails, bridges, playgrounds, and a disc golf course. It is a popular recreation area for college students and families.

The park is accessible all hours and days. It is a safe and enjoyable location for birding solo or with a group.

Lanana Creek Trail traverses the park running parallel to the creek.
