The Sabinal Birdhouse
"The Birdhouse has a specially
built long room with plate glass windows facing north to the
river bank, east, and west. For the convenience of guests are a
handicapped bathroom and regular bathroom and well as kitchen
facilities. The view of Henry's Bluff with black brush,
cenniza, a huge cypress, live oak, milkweed, mountain laurel,
native grasses, native walnut, persimmons in the foreground,
complement the man-made additions of a bird bath, winding
pathways which surround a long fish pond, two arched wooden
bridges, rocked areas of native plants, a waterfall, and a deep
fire pit for chilly evenings outdoors. In the fish pond are
several varieties of water lilies and natural fish species found
in the area." Nov.13, 2008 Uvalde Leader News
Uvalde County is the migratory
path for many birds. The Sabinal River is one of several
rivers running through Uvalde County. At the Sabinal
Birdhouse we provide the ability to get up close and personal
with the birds. The Birdhouse is located within minutes of
Sabinal, Texas and about an hour west of San Antonio.
The site consists of 302
acres of ranch property of which 35 acres are developed into
walking trails through brushy pasturage overlooking scenic river
bottom.
We welcome all birders,
novice birders, serious photographers and everything in between
to visit our natural habitat of birds, butterflies and wildlife.
