Located just off the beach at Indianola, this tract is bisected by Zimmerman Road, and is a well known site for observing Neotropical migratory songbirds, shorebirds, as well as some south Texas species on the northern edge of their range. Area birders for years have frequented this site and birded from the two public access points, the county road and the Old Town Cemetery. |
