Patsy Glenn Refuge
The Wimberley Birding Society under the leadership of Patsy Glenn designated 1.8 acres of unused land as a refuge for birds a few years ago and have since developed it as a birding educational site. We have laid paths and installed a bird blind, a swift chimney and are developing the plant list below.Printer Friendly: Species List | List with Images | List with QR Tags to Mobile
