Texas Spring Migration & Hill Country Reviews

5 Rating 7 Reviews

Apr 14 - 22, 2026 | The Upper Texas Coast is a birding paradise during the spring. Our Texas Spring birding tour will take in the migration spectacle as tens of thousands of birds pass through this region. We will visit High Island, Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge, the extensive salt flats and marshes of the Bolivar Peninsula and northward to the beautifully unique Hill Country. Bird highlights will be many including the critically endangered Black-capped Vireo and Golden-cheeked Warblers.

“Go for a variety of habitats and birds. We saw as many as we could and also spent time at a bat cave that has an international reputation. Texas is huge, and focused tours like this are a good idea. Kyle Schanta is an excellent leader, and we hope he will continue to lead this tour so you can enjoy his company too!”

“This was a terrific tour. Kyle was a great guide, very knowledgeable about birds and very personable and kind. We saw a great variety of interesting birds, many "lifers" for me, and we traveled to parts of Texas I'd never visited before. Our traveling companions were most congenial, and we had many laughs together. Overall a very successful trip!”

“Had a great time as a beginner birder and already thinking about another trip. Eagle Eye provided very helpful pre trip guidelines and checklist. Our guide Kyle was fantastic, very knowledgeable, always trying to make sure we all had a good time, very thoughtful about keeping me well fed as a vegan with the poor options in Texas. Saw loads of new and exciting birds and learned a lot about how to find them. I thought we moved at a good pace but I was also glad that it wasn't a problem to wander a little further from the group every once in a while. Would warn future trippers about the demonic mosquitoes on the Texan coast.”

“Thoroughly enjoyable trip with knowledgeable and personable guides. Saw over 230 species in 7 days, plus extras like Mexican free tail bats emerging at dusk. Staying in just 2 general locations maximized birding while minimizing time spent driving. Highly recommended.”
