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. I heard grackles, Yellow-Billed Cuckoos, Carolina Wrens, and Blue Jays in the woods during my June 2023 visit. Great-Tailed Grackles were the only ones that presented themselves to me.
