There are a variety of habitats available for birds who might be stopping by. That makes for some good bird watching! I liked the view of the Trinity River on the far end of the sanctuary. I also enjoy how quiet it is. That might be the best part.

This is a great place for introducing bird watching to your kiddos. You'll be equipped with binoculars and a guide who shares info about local birds and habitat, plants, etc. He points out different bird sounds, which bird it is and gives time to try and find through the nocs. I was with my grands, ages 3 and 7. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will go again soon. There are more points of interest inside such as pamphlets, gift store and subjects to inspect. Get going and happy birding! I would like to express my thanks to the entire team here! 👍🐦

Can you bike there

Bruce M Morris | Oct 28, 2018

Actually biking the trail would be a waste as most of the trails and paths are narrow and are shorter routes. The whole emphasis of the Audubon center is to observe the birds so the pathways are aimed to give you a view without disturbing the birds.

Is fishing allowed? I have my poles ready to go and my fishing license. Just need to know the rules about fishing, and if it's allowed here?

Have to check...

are there good areas to go metal detecting

Joe Halo | Oct 28, 2019
Sharper Lance | Oct 28, 2019

I would say definitely not. You are expected to stay on the walking paths and viewing areas leaving the other areas for the wildlife.

I am a certified scuba diver under the national program called PADI and I was wondering if it would be allowed for myself and 2 of my friends could come look for things that the kyackers have lost or cool things in the water?

Owen Gough | Oct 28, 2018
Bolillo Rodriquezz | Oct 28, 2018

I really don't think it would be worth your time. There is just a very small pond that nobody with a kayak would bother getting on. It is not a fishing pond and was dried up recently. I think they stock it with fish but the fish don't get big because of the small size of the pond.

Are dogs allowed on the trails at the Audubon center??

Barbara Durham | Oct 28, 2018
Bruce M Morris | Oct 28, 2018

Considering that it is a bird sanctuary, I would think that wouldn't be a good idea.
