Join Virginia Rose, founder of Birdability, and Pam Smolen, Chair of the Houston Audubon Board of Directors, on an accessible field trip to Smith Oaks! What to Expect:  We plan to begin at the Smith Oaks Rookery where nine species of heron, egret, spoonbill, ibis, cormorant, and Anhinga nest within inches of each other. The High Island rookery offers birders a close view of the annual dramedy of waterbird nesting activity including vibrant breeding plumage, mating hustle and nestlings.
