Habitat:

Upper Texas Coast (UTC) 108 BRAZORIA NWR: Brazoria is a vital complex of coastal wetlands and prairie harboring more than 300 bird species. The refuge serves as an end point of the Central Flyway for waterfowl in winter, and an entry point for neotropical migratory songbirds tired from a 600-mile Gulf crossing from Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula.

Notes:

In the Visitors Center parking median a butterfly habitat had been planted.
