Welcome
to East Texas Birding
East Texas Birding was made for anyone who enjoys the wonders of nature in East Texas, especially birds. We have a lot of information about birding in East Texas (birdwatching, if you are “old school”) including an ID Guide to East Texas Birds. Visitors can learn many fun things about birds and birding in East Texas as well as find new birding friends & organizations. The ID Guide to Birds of East Texas is rather basic at the moment but we are adding to it regularly.
The original focus was on birding in East Texas, as we are birders (birdwatchers) and are particularly interested in observing and photographing East Texas birds. The East Texas Bird ID page is our most popular section.
Nature Photography Workshops
Many East Texas birders are also photographers. If you would like to improve your photography skills, we offer Nature Photography Workshops in East Texas. These workshops range from an introduction to digital cameras & photography to more advanced courses on bird & nature photography such as Birds in Flight.
Class sizes are limited and private sessions are also available.
Check the Event Calendar and watch for birding events: field trips, birding group meetings, photography workshops, etc. We also list other nature-related events.
