Tom Langschied leads a field trip around the hotspots and countryside of Kleberg County. Get ready for Klebiggies!

We will meet at Love’s Truck Stop (1451 US 77 frontage road) at 7:30 am.  From there we will head west to a couple stops on the Texas A&M University - Kingsville campus to look for various winter residents and resident birds that can often be found there.  Included in this university visit will be a stop at the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Center to explore the A. E. Leonard Family Native Plant Garden.  This garden with its diverse native plantings attracts a nice assortment of birds. 

After that we will make stops at the King Ranch Visitor Center grounds and then head to Dick Kleberg Park.  We will finish out the morning by heading down to Kaufer Hubert county park and the waterbirds that can be found there. 

All stops will be slow paced, short walks.  Restrooms will be available at most birding stops. This tour will end at approximately 11:30.

Bring water, snacks and might as well tote along bug spray just to be fully prepared!
