Sanctuaries

Sabine Woods Sanctuary, an isolated stand of trees on the coastal plains between Sabine Pass and Bolivar Peninsula, is a haven for neotropical migratory birds.

The Rookery is a tenement for birds, where they gossip, fight and raise their families.

During the spring and fall migrations hundreds of birders flock to this small patch of forest on High Island.

The beach and mudflats of the sanctuary are a haven for thousands of shorebirds and migrants.
