Anytime I visit High Island Texas, I can’t pass up an opportunity to stop by the Smith Oaks Bird Sanctuary. I’ve never been disappointed with the times I’ve spent there. Wading birds and cormorants abound, and lots of nesting takes place. During my June 2023 visit, I watched a Black Vulture sail by looking for a place to roost for the night.
